      Death register. Maria Buschmann, nee Block; died 10 [sic] May 1916. Daughter of Heinrich Friedrich Block and Louise Sophie Caroline, nee Homeyer. Wife of Georg Deidrich [sic] Buschmann. Born 16 October 1852. Age: 63 years, 6 months, 15 days.
      The dates of birth and of death as published in this transcription do not calculate to the age that is published. Further, the published date of death, 10 May, is not confirmed by the date engraved on Maria's gravestone, which is 1 May 1916. The published transcription and the gravestone both agree on the date of birth - 16 October 1852. This date, when used with the age published in the transcription, supports a date of death of 1 May 1916. The original documents should be consulted to determine what corrections, if any, may need to be made.
