Moris J (Morris) Powelson died Mar 5, 1888 age 80 yrs
The name is mostly worn off.  You can just make out Powelson and I confirmed the
first name in M Perry readings 1965.  His death certificate is spelled Morris,
the stone reads Moris J.

Additional Comments:
Morris was a taxpayer in Richfield 1844 and lived by Oliver, his probable father
in 1850 Richfield.  Both of them were born in New Jersey, while Morris' wife
Maria was b in NY.  Maria is not listed as buried here but probably is as she
died Jan 1, 1891 in Genesee Co.  Oliver, Morris, Jahial, and Alvah all purchased
land in Oakland co in 1837.
