Steves, Caleb T. d. Nov. 23, 1868, ae. 38
Steves, Charles W. d. June 20, 1880 (was 1860, see below), ae. 62

From Bill Ruddock, 20 December 2005
Charles W. was alive and well, living in Geddes in 1870.   He was 52 years old, a retired farmer.. See 1870 U.S. Census, Geddes, Onondaga Co., N.Y., p. 100.

In fact, Charles W., age 62, was still living on 8 June 1880 when the 1880 U.S. Census was taken, (See 1880 U.S. Census, Geddes, E.D. 174, p. 21).

I believe that the real death date for Charles W. is probably 20 June 1880 and this date matches with the death date given in the "Cemetery Transcriptions from the NEHGS Manuscript Collections" database.
