Here lies Joseph only son of John and Ann Gilliam of Saxton who died November 20 1854 aged 17 years.
Also Ann, sister of the above, who died April 10 1857 aged 18 (this figure was difficult to read but is consistent with birth c 1839).
Also John Gilliam father to the above who died August 4th 1880 aged 74 years.

Died 4 August 1880 aged 74 (see Death Certificate).

So this gives the following children: Joseph b c1838, Ann b c 1839, Hannah b c 1843, Sarah b c 1844, Grace b c 1846. I believe that the Mary aged 6 who was on the 1841 census with Joseph (1742-1842) also belongs to this family and is, in fact, the first child, born c 1835/6, also that she is the one who went on to marry William Davis.
