(Headstone has the Weeping Willow) Reference Notes Maiden names in parentheses ( ) under Name and (wife of ....) under Inscription/Notes were added by the compiler to aid researchers. Often times “wife of ...” is on the headstone, and in such case is not shown in parentheses. There are two “born dates” in bold/italics which are questionable as to accuracy, however they appear in this compilation exactly as shown on marker. The Winsome Peavy marker does not have an “e”. The Hawthorn burials do not have an “e”; those buried in Pineapple do have the “e” added. Nored burials have only one “r”. Astericks (*) indicate individual still living.
