Notes for Fielding B. Ham
His death certificate records Fielding B. Ham, age 85 years 2 months 14 days, born 11 March 1827 in Kentucky, died 25 May 1912 in Pine Grove precinct, Rowan Co., Ky, married, farmer, father Joseph Ham, born in Virginia, mother’s maiden name Nancy McClurg, birthplace unknown, cause of death pariletic stroke, informant blank, burial in Masters Cemetery.

His gravestone says F. B. Ham, Born Mar 11, 1830 Died May 25, 1912.

The earlier date is more consistent with census records, although I suspect the correct year may be 1828.
