[infant] Underwood113. Birth: 27 April 1923, Sevier County, Tennessee. Death: 27 April 1923, age 0, Sevier County, Tennessee. Burial: at Bryan-Drinnen-Cate Cemetery Kodak, Sevier County, Tennessee. Grave marker: Infant of J.A. and Clauda Underwood, April 27, 1923. GPS: 35.988115, -83.582595. The date on this infant's stone is four years after the death of the mother who is listed on the stone. I can only conclude that the date on the stone is incorrect, or that the mother's name is incorrect. The latter is certainly possible because John Amos Underwood's second wife was Lola Helen Bryan. Lola Helen Bryan was Clauda Lee Bryan's first cousin, and both of them were granddaughters of Peter H. Bryan and Mary Ann Cate. The infant was buried next to the aforementioned Peter H. Bryan and Mary Ann Cate.
