"The Cleveland Courier" - Jan. 23, 1931 - "Mr. John W. Allen, aged 86, of old age

 after an illness of several days, died Tuesday.  He was buried at Tesnatee

Wednesday afternoon."

John Wesley Allen was 86 when he died, but his death certificate says Jan. 19 and his tombstone says he died Jan. 12.   Also the cemetery is wrong.  He is buried at

 Mt. Pleasant Methodist Cemetery with his second wife Sarah White who died March 3, 1933.  The marker says "Erected by son O.R. Allen".  Ollie was his son by Sarah.

Is this the right obituary?   Was there another John W. Allen who died there

 in Jan. 1931?
