Date taken : 2003
Description :
The final resting place of my great-great-grandfather William T. Sturgeon (front row of stones, third from the left-the fourth stone is a civil war service marker) William T. went to Indianapolis for training with hundreds of other newly enlisted Civil War soldiers, but was never mustered out do to disease contracted at training which proved fatal. Two daughters, Hannah and Charolotte are burried on the ends of the same row. Beside William T. lies his step-mother, Sarah "Sally" Jones. Where his wife "Ellen" Nelly (Costin) Sturgeon ended up is unknown, but we believe she gave up her plot here to bury her mother in law, as they were both widdows at the time of Sarah's death.
