CARPENTER, WILLIAM - William Carpenter and daughter. (No other information).
Note: William Carpenter was the son of Hardy and Amanda. Since there was no other information on his tombstone we do not have the dates of birth and death.
GLADSTONE CEM. (33)
LOCATION: Section 8-2S-1W. Approx. Center of the SE/4. approximately 1/2 Mi. due northwest of Gladstone on Pulaski Pike. Located on land in the possession of what was Wholesale Nursery. Until a few years ago there was a coppice here and several gravestones but the land was then cleared and the stones destroyed.
"JONES" CEMETERY (34)
LOCATION: Sec. 17-2S-1W. S/2 SE SE. In the back yard of a private residence on Monroe Road a few yards west of Pulaski Pike.
JONES, ALBERT H. - 1835 - 1908.
Note: This stone does NOT mark the final resting place of Albert H. Jones. The stonecutter responsible for this stone made an error in the lettering which made the stone worthless. The stonecutter was a friend of the family who lived at this place and when the family dog died he gave them the stone to mark the grave of the beloved pet. It is not known whether the stonecutter's error was in the dates or name nor where this man is actually buried.
GRIFFIN CEMETERY (35)
LOCATION: Sec. 21-2S-1W. S/2 NE NE. The stones are lying at the corner of the barn on the farm of Weaver Brooks on Monroe Road.
Unable to check this cemetery.
