It is felt that this cemetery had nothing to do with the company. It was reported that as of 2000, there was a large-heavy tombstone marking a grave. It's assumed that this marker belonged to Earle Patterson. In Apr-2003 this tombstone was missing. Thrown off to the side of a fenced in area, is a 8" x 12" broken piece of granite. This obviously is from a circa 1900 tombstone.
