Mrs. Stilley is a step-sister of Ezra Meeker of Oregon Trail fame and her acquaintance with him dates from the time two families crossed the Oregon Trail. Leaving Ohio in the spring of 1854 as a seven-year-old, in company with a great number of othe families, Mrs. Stilley set out for the west with her parents Nancy North Burr and David Solomon Burr. Jacob Meeker was a member of another immigrant train, en route west to join his son, Ezra, who had traversed the trail two years before. The two trains were about a day apart. Cholera, supposedly contacted by Mrs. Stilley's father while preparing for burial the body of one of their comrades, caused the death of Mr. Burr. On the same day, the wagons following stopped to prepare a grave for Mrs. Jacob Meeker, who died from the same disease. These two graves, a few miles apart along the Oregon Trail near the Nebraska/Wyoming border, mark the last resting places of the mother of Ezra Meeker and the father of Mrs. Stilley, In the forward train was the bereaved wife.

Jay was a wonderful man who was given the short end of the stick early in life. He could charm anyone! And could sell a vacuum cleaner to an Eskimo! His life was cut way too short! He made mistakes in his life that he could never forgive himself for and didn't know how to right his wrongs. But his mistakes do not define the man who had a heart a heart of gold and would do anything for anyone! He always said that if his life story could help one person everything he went through had a purpose. I hope that he is remembered for that and all of the great things he did. (Written by his wife)
