Notes for Lafayette (Spouse 1)
DIED.
McVAY--At his residence in this county, on Monday, May 3, after a long and serious illness, with consumption. Lafayette Mc-Vay, aged twenty-four years.
The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Zimmerman of this city, on Tuesday, in the presence of a large audience of earnestly sympathizing friends and neighbors, and the remains were interred in the Morris Cemetery on Lyons creek. The deceased leaves a wife and two children to mourn their irreparable loss.
----------------------------
The Wreford Cemetery at the time of Lafayette's death was known as "the Morris Cemetery on Lyons creek" (per his obituary in the Junction City Tribune). I take the date of his burial from the obituary as well, which identifies his funeral as occurring on "Tuesday." So Lafayette died on Monday, May 3 and was eulogized and, presumably, buried on Tuesday, May 4.
While 24 seems a terribly young age to die, seven of Thomas Patterson McVay and Henrietta West McVay's thirteen children died at a younger age than did Lafayette.
