| Notes | Though not fully visible, one of the five individual log-form stone markers can be seen in this photo. Only the stone for Mabel, obtained thirty-seven years after the death of her father, is different. Mabel’s marker, though about the size and shape of the others, is rounded and smooth. Her stone is also situated sideways, in a position to indicate that a grave location on the plot was not available for her. |
