Joseph Knight Jr. (1808-1866): Gravesite

The is the gravesite of Joseph Knight Jr., my 4th great grandfather. The photos come from the findagrave.com website.

Joseph is buried in the Salt Lake City Cemetery in Salt Lake City, Utah.  There is a discrepincy between the 2 stones.  One says he died in 1865 and the other in 1866.  My records show that he died in 1866 so I'll stick with that for now.
