Notes

The birth date on James Harrison Norman's headstone (06 Jun 1887) is incorrect (at a minimum, the year is incorrect). He was enumerated in eight US Censuses (including 1870 & 1880 when living at home as a minor child), and his birth year is almost certainly 1866 based on the data from those censuses. It isn't known why the grave marker is wrong, but it definitely is. We use June 1866 here since that is the date given on the 1900 census.
The 1900 census reveals that Sallie had given birth to three children, but only two were then living. Given that the two children enumerated were age 3 and age 8 months, and that James and Sarah were married in 1892, the deceased child must have been their first, probably born ca. 1894 and died before 1900. However, since there is no name on the child's grave marker, it could have been an infant death or stillborn, thus a likely death year of 1894.
