CHILD 12 - Otho Young METCALF

BIRTH-NAME: Gunnison Ward Member Record; FHL film 025977. I think date is the 23rd - hard to read.

BIRTH-DEATH-BURIAL_PLACE: tombstone inscription seen at Fayette Cemetery 5 June 2000 by Vauna Marie Green.  This is a small obelisque monument with an inscription on each of the four sides for each of four of the children of Anthony & Sylvia Metcalf.  The inscription for Otho reads: "Otho Y. son of Anthony & Sylvia Metcalf Born Nov. 23, 1883 Died Mar. 10, 1884."

BIRTH-DEATH: Cemetery records: Fayette, Sanpete County, Utah; FHL book 979.256 V3ce. YOUNG, Altho, b. 23 Nov. 1883, d. 10 March 1884.  This is a mistake.  This publication is tombstone inscriptions, not original Sexton's records, and this researcher (Vauna Green) has seen the marker in question as documented above.  It is for Otho Y. METCALF. At least the dates match the marker!

BIRTH-DEATH: Utah State Historical Society Database; http://history.utah.org/Services/lcburials.html  YOUNG, Altho Gender: Male Birth: 11/23/1883 Death: 3/10/1884.  Note this database gives the same incorrect/incomplete name that the Fayette Cemetery Records give.  As per phone call with Janice Bown, Fayette Town Clerk & Sexton who contributed the information to the web site, the source for the database info was almost certainly the Fayette Cemetery Records cited above.  At least the dates match the marker!
