Death

Date December 31, 1838
Place Greensburg, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States

Narrative

A death notice for John Henry from: Mary Jane Mains, compiler, Newspaper Accounts of Births, Marriages and Deaths, 1808-1929 (not all inclusive), Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania (Greensburg: Westmoreland County Historical Society, 1994):

KIEL, John Henry s/o Henry G. & Sarah of this borough d Mon. 31st ult. aged 11 mo. 24 days (1-4-1839 RF)

Note: this differs from the date of death recorded in his family's Bible, which says Dec 31, 1839. I believe the family record is incorrect, perhaps recorded by a distraught mother in January 1839.
