Tombstone Tuesday ~ Question 4 Today

What is the oldest... or rather earliest recorded date on a headstone in my family for which I can obtain a picture of the headstone?

Leroy Township, Boone County, Illinois

Burr Oak Cemetery  is located on Englehart Rd, 1/4 mile east off Burr Oak Rd [3 mi S of the Wisconsin state line.] Note: Burr Oak Rd runs north off Hunter Rd in Leroy Township.  The cemetery lies on the north side of the road.


I visited this Cemetery for the first time when my Aunt Ruth Travis Bias was laid to rest November 2006 I beleive??????
It was cold, and I didn't know at the time that there were other relatives here... otherwise I would have trekked  awhile!
