Source notes

  • From Ann Fix: The graves for Henry Miller & daughter Minnie are near those for John C. Stoughton and Mary Jane McCandless Stoughton. Mary O. Stoughton Miller was buried in the same row as Henry and daughter Minnie Miller, but at the very end of the row, near the lake.
    Minnie died young in 1883, followed by Henry in 1887. Mary and Henry probably owned only a two grave plot. Or possibly Mary's parents provided space for Minnie in their plot and then Mary wanted Henry buried beside his daughter.
