Bateman died [[June 3]], [[1903]] in [[Silver City, New Mexico|Silver City]], [[New Mexico]], and is buried in lot F-25-4 [http://www.rootsweb.com/~cemetery/nmcounties/cemeteries/memorylanecemt.htm] on Memory Lane in the Pioneer Cemetary in Silver City. Bateman's original headstone, as well as the cemetary records, incorrectly list his name as Batman, and the year of death as 1904. This has since been corrected by Corlyn H. Adams, a descendant of Bateman's, who paid for a new stone, and had the old stone left in place for historical reasons. | Bateman died [[June 3]], [[1903]] in [[Silver City, New Mexico|Silver City]], [[New Mexico]], and is buried in lot F-25-4 [http://www.rootsweb.com/~cemetery/nmcounties/cemeteries/memorylanecemt.htm] on Memory Lane in the Pioneer Cemetary in Silver City.
