Here in NJ there are different flea markets depending on what you want Antiques? Golden Nugget Tools and parts? Englishtown Crafts and/or farmers market stuff? Columbus Stuff bulk ordered off AliExpress? Rice's.

In Houston there's a road that's like one giant Aliexpress bazaar. It even has its own wikipedia article.

Why would you gently caress with a single flea market when you could shop the 127 Yard Sale? 690 very nice miles of yard sales along US-127 and the Lookout Mountain Parkway.

Drove up to a local pioneer cemetery where my grandpa is buried, for some dipshit reason I only really photographed the wildflowers but I took some pics on the way home too weird christian sign that says "ReturnTome" that I always read as "return tome"  Farmland shots   For some reason no matter how clear Mt. Hood is I can never get a photo  The graveyard has a lot of people who died in the 1920s flu epidemic, it was sad seeing so many people under 30 all with deaths in those years This is the only stone I took a photo of because its so depressing, the 3rd side had a bunch of babies ranging from 3 days to a few months old Emmaline, 1862-1877, and her husband John Wardle 1815-1902. She died at 15, when her husband was...62  and the old creep got to live to 87  More even than the lack of antibiotics/modern medicine, stuff like THAT makes me thankful I wasnt born back then

The thing I notice a lot of in cemeteries is that a good number of the really old graves are babies and children and with more modern graves when a husband died first the wife would usually live for another 10-30 years but if the wife died first the husband usually makes it another 5 years or less. It's not hard to guess why. quote:Emmaline, 1862-1877, and her husband John Wardle 1815-1902. She died at 15, when her husband was...62 iT wAs A dIfFeReNt TiMe!

This makes the year of her birth 1842. She also seems to have a daughter born almost a month after she died?

It's entirely possible that this thing is screwy because of how long ago it was and the fact that record keeping in the era, especially if the area was not in or near a city, wasn't great.

Plus the ease of checking records wasn't a thing until recently.

It would only be like 120 or so years old if it was original and it looks about that old, this area wasnt settled until like the 1840s so none of the stones are very old compared to farther east

Possible that Emmaline’s original was replaced after John’s death - possibly when his headstone was placed as well?

It's not hard to guess why. John Tyler has a living grandson. Tyler, who was born in 1790 and was President from 1841-45, still has a living grandson, Harrison Ruffin Tyler. Another grandson died last year. President Tyler's first wife died and he kept on going. His second wife was not quite 24 when they married (Tyler was 54) and they had seven children. He and the first Mrs. Tyler had eight. Harrison Tyler's father was Lyon Tyler, born in 1853 during the second marriage when John was 63. Like his father, Lyon married twice. Harrison was born in 1928 and Lyon was 75.
