Individual Details

Harden C. Cornelious

(16 Sep 1869 - 1 Feb 1961)



His grave marker has 16 Sep 1866 for his date of birth - but he was only nine months old in the 1870 census - and he was age 10 in 1880. I believe he was born in 1869, not 1866. Since he lived until 1961, chances are good his birth year had been forgotten. He is buried Gracemont Cemetery, Caddo Co. Oklahoma
