This marker is next to impossible to read without enhancing it on the 
computer. Using chalk to highlight the stone for photographing it, the name 
Henry was visible.  Using the computer to magnify the image, it was possible 
to detect the inscribed 17y of the age.  Using those two pieces of evidence, 
the only Henry on Paul Mayberry's 1999 recording of the cemetery done for the 
Pickaway County Genealogy Society that matches is for Henry Oman. Mayberry's 
information for Henry Oman is as follows: Died 7 Feb 1841, Age 17y 4m, s/o 
Moses and Elizabeth Oman. Mayberry indicated he found no stone.  I believe 
this to be the stone and it was simply impossible for Mayberry to read it 
without the aid of the computer enhancement.
