The shape of this headstone is about right for the 1870s, with the crude body form and head for a male and the appropriate hand lettering that includes a typo ("Meory" in place of "Memory"). Below two hearts is the inscription:
In Meory of
John
Stroud
Born. Aprl. 6
1809. Died
August 17th
1876. Aged
67. Years
4 mo. 11 days
--
Note the shift to smaller letters as the inscriber ran out of space!
Date of Birth: 4/6/1809
Date of Death: 8/17/1876
Material: Stone
