This information from Claudia Tillman

Arrow Rock Cemetery, Saline County, Missouri:

Cemetery record list Date of Birth as February 2, 1816.
Tombstone indicates birth date of February 2, 1816 and death date of September 30, 1903.
If birth date really 1816, then mother would have only been 13 years old.
Census record for 1850 indicates date of birth 1826. See Claiborne notes.

In new tombstone erected in January 2001, Arrow Rock Cemetery, Harry Eastham had inscribed a birth date of February 2, 1824. This is the best date from known facts.
