American Legion

 
This was an odd site even in the cemetery. The marker seems to be very old but is has the clearest engraving on it. There were no other markings on this...so...the date....hmmmm...when he was born? died? He was in the American Legion which means he fought in an American war. In 1844...well...The American Legion was not founded until 1919 so that would indicate that this fellow was maybe BORN in 1844? A confusing head stone.....especially since it looks like it has been broken in half....What do you think?
