      Since she is still alive in June 1900, the headstone, which shows she died 1899, must be wrong! So is Buman B the same person as Burman B and are his dates wrong also? No - I found her death record and she did die in 1899, which explains why he stated he was widowed and then the census taker wrote M over the WD.
