  • Notes 
    • I have entered Abraham knowing that Dieter Eby Newman could find no prrof of jacob Eby having any issues. But the headstone may, in the future, help researchers to unravel this mystery. IS this the correct headstone for this person with incorrect information on the back? This is up to researchers to determine.
