  4. [S748] Find a Grave website, online at www.findagrave.com, John Wynkoop, Memorial# 63687145, reporting his birth in 1820 and death on 1 March 1857, both which are believed by this researcher to be incorrect; the gravestone is old and difficult to read, however we believe John was born on 14 January 1800, making him six years older than his wife Sarah, and not 14 years younger; and believe he died on 1 March 1837, which would be in agreement with his recorded age at death of 37 years, 1 month, 15 days.
