Mt. Ebal Re-Visit

Today's Walk Through the Tombstones is a re-visit to Mt. Ebal Cemetery near Monroe Lake.  We stopped back by there just to see if anything had changed and snap a few pictures of some other graves.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our first stop is at the grave of Beatrice Meadows Baugh.

She had many siblings:

Born: March 25, 1828
Died: August 18, 1881

She was the wife of Stephen G. Davis (?-?).  I am unsure as to the place of his burial, but after some research, I found both her and her husband listed as having unknown burials in Illinois.  The dates are somewhat different, however.  All of the family is buried in Illinois with no links to Indiana.  I only mention it because of the similarities.

This is the grave of Gilbert Eads.
