The Tomb Of The Tobins

This is the headstone of John Compton Tobin (1925-1906) Laura Virginia Thompson Tobin (1842-1915), and Amana Abigail Tobin (1876-1904).

According to the information provided by findagrave.com, the dates of birth and death for John on the headstone were both wrong, the date of death for Luara was also mistaken. I have listed the correct dates above.

John was a farmer and a carpenter for all of his life. He owned a ranch in Rappahannock with her wife Laura raising livestock. They were like many Virginian farmers at the time. The couples had many kids, one them was Amana Abigail, she sadly died at the age of 27. the reason for this death was unclear. 

Laura was the younger sister of Armistead.
