This was a newer cemetery marker put up by their son,
Atward Jake Aldridge
in the 1970's. From my research, the birth date
for James is wrong. They
have the birthdate as 1865. My research shows the
birthdate to be Dec
10, 1861. Also the birth date for Elvira is wrong.
From the 1900 census
and the date for the birth of the parents the birth date
is Aug 1876, not
1875.
