I asked a question and rec'd no answer;
but when reviewing these photos I got to thinking...
Family Legend has a story that one of our ancesters died by the side of the road and was buried under a
big Oak Tree.
The question I asked was:
Who was it that died on a wagon trip and was buried by the side of the road under an OAK tree?
Well, this cemetery, the King Cemetery, is alongside a country road right between fields of barns and cows!
Mary Jane & Wiett are buried here,
side by side, right in front of a large OAK tree!
So you see, there is always a wee bit of truth to most family stories! Yes, Indeed!
Looking from rear of King Cemetery towards road. |

See the large Oak Tree. |
Interesting to note Mary Jane's small stone marker |
