201. John W. and Jane Shelton (et. al.) tombstone, McCallister Cemetery, SR 109 S between 36 and 38, Adams township, Madison county, Indiana. Are the tombstone death date or age in error? Because if they are correct, and the death date of Jane is correct, then he can't be her son, having been born after her death. However, it is more likely that there is an error on one or the other's stone carvings, and she died from complications of childbirth, and he died several months later..
