      Salies, Michael, 6/1854, Ferdinand & Sarah Salies, Jackson Co, farmer
      Salaz, Ven Curries, 9/4/1860, F & Sarah SAlaz, Jackson Co, farmer

      JC Cemetery book shows Sarah died 12/6/1885, age 50y 10m 16 d wife of Ferdinand
      This would make her born in 1835 - it is more likely the stone reads 56 y or 58 y - or this is a different Sarah.
      The photograph, taken in 2008, shows the stone is cracked and eroded and the number of years is pretty much gone. But the year of her birth is probably 1829 or maybe 1858.
