Mrs. Frances Darnell has recently completed compiling former School Superintendent Hupe's papers from the years he was superintendent. The scrapbook, made up of approx. 150 pages plus pictures from that period will be placed in the Montgomery County Library. Mrs. Darnell has also completed this history of the Loutre Lick Cemetery. When the Van Buren Chapter of the DAR, requested information on the location of Isaac VanBibber's grave for a DAR marker. The following is Mrs. Darnell's reply...
After consulting several of the older people in the neighborhood, I find that VanBibber graves do lie in a cemetery, which is located up the hill, northwest of the tavern. Mayor Isaac VanBibber, his Wife, three daughters and a son-in-law are buried in the graveyard together with other representitives of many of the pioneer families. "Out of a number of graves, very few can be seen at present."....
Buried in the cemetery are; Floria Graham, Marian C. Graham. They were the daughters of, Robert and Isabella Gailbreath Graham and sisters of D. F. Graham. D. F. Knew where his sisters were buried. He realized that the location would be lost in time. He asked Mr. Harvey Scanland if he would give him a deed to the area where the graves were so he could fence it.....
The Deed, dated, Aug. 10, 1896...a certain tract of land, 48 feet wide, and 56 feet wide....the said tract having been used for a burying ground years before is now designated to be preserved, cared for, in honor of the dead. About 1901, Ben R. Graham fenced this small tract of land as his Father had requested. The fence posts decayed but the wire remains.. ......
In 1948, James K. VanBibber, wrote Harry Ball, Postmaster at Montgomery City, asking for someone who would copy all inscriptions from every VanBibber stone in the graveyard in Mineola. No stones or graves were found at that time......
In 1975, the Darnell and Harris families erected a permanent marker in the center of the known footage of the cemetery to preserve the location of the two Graham graves. The stone can be seen from the parking lot of the Mineola Baptist Church......
NOTE: The stone used is a stone from the first bridge over Loutre River built in 1886......
Besides the two Graham graves, also buried here are;
~ISAAC VANBIBBER~ b. Oct. 20, 1771, in Greenbriar Co. W. Virginia d. Sept. 30, 1840, Montgomery o. Missouri
~ELIZABETH HAYS VANBIBBER~ b. june 12, 1776, Fort Boonesborough, Ky. d. Aug 3, 1828, Loutre Lick, Montgomery Co. Missouri

Ratliff Boone VanBibber, served in the 143rd. Regiment of Indiana Volunteers in the Civil War as follows;
Volunteer Enlistment, Feb. 1, 1865, at Evansville, Vanderburgh Co. Indiana, for a period of 3 years, (muster records list 1 year enlistment), as a Private; Ratliff B. VanBibber, born Vanderburgh Co. Indiana, 18 years old, farmer. (He was actually 16)
He was listed on Company muster rolls as present in CO. 1, 143rd Regiment, Indiana Infantry from that date until he was listed as having deserted from Fort Donaldson on 9-13-1865, along with a US. Springfield rifle and accoutrements valued at, $23. 32.
He was in the Evansville arear after the War and lived there until his death Jan. 3, 1900. He was quite well known around town as a character. He wore buckskins in the late 1800's which was not common apparel.
It was said that Ratliff was a man of personal courage. His last job was carrying large sacks of potatoes over his shoulder from the fields around Evansville. From this, he contracted cancer in his arm. As the cancer progressed, they performed several amputations, starting with his hand. When they amputated it, it was clenched and they buried it. Later he complained of pain in his hand and insisted that they dig it up and open the clenched fist, they did, and the pain stopped.

The Confederate Soldiers graves are located approx. 3 miles south of Chestnut Mound in the Tom Hollow off St. Mary's Hollow Rd. ..............
Uriah R. Gillihan, from Jackson Co. TN. and T. W. Phillips from Overton Co. TN. had been members of the 28th Confederate Infantry and had fought in several major battles such as; Shiloh, Fishing Creek, & Stones's River. Both had either been wounded or sick and were furloughed from the Army. Gillihan and Phillips met in Putnam Co. in the Spring of 1865 while on the way home. Lee had surrendered in April but they were not aware of it. They attended a dance at Buffalo Valley and became involved in a dispute. Fearing for their lives they left Buffalo Valley and went to the home of Charles F. Burton, arriving about daylight. Mr. Burton, being a Southern Sympathizer fed the two boys and sent them to hide in a cabin in the Tom Hollow. They were discovered by the Home Guard who marched them around the area, then physically tormented them with bayonets. They were then tied to separate trees and shot by the Union men..................................
When the 2 bodies were discovered, Mr. Burton had them wrapped in blankets and buried. Mr. Burton had a rock wall built around the graves which he kept clean and decorated with flowers for the rest of his life. Descendants of the Burton Family and the Lewis Fletcher family who helped bury the bodies, still living in the Chestnut Mound area who are knowledgable about this event. In the 1970's Guy Boyd, Grandson of Lewis Fletcher was instrumental in getting stone markers placed at the graves. (See photos of the graves in our photo section)

William Albert VanBibber and Ann Mary Sutton (double first cousins) were married, July 5, 1880. During the next eight years Ann Mary bore five children, Lillian, Ethel, Olive, Martha and Raymond. Divorce records indicate that William was a drunkard who beat his wife and shortly after the birth of Raymond, deserted his young family. Ann Mary, alone with five children, untrained for any kind of work was probably desperate at this point. Whether she acted out of desperation or from the Courts intervension, we don't know. It was not uncommon in those days for the courts to find a parent unfit and would place the children in an orphanage. This is what happened to these children. One day Ann Mary simply showed up at the door of the Warrick Co. Orphan's home with five little children in tow.....and left them there, never to return. This was not a unique event, thousands of children passed through the doors of Orphanages during this time period. Few of these children were ever actually adopted. The best they could hope for was to be "indentured" out to a decent family who would treat them well. Most were indentured to people who were not looking for a child to love but one who was strong and healthy and who would be a free servant. This is what happened to all five of these children. They all have their own stories to tell which I will do in seperate stories. The last event to track the parents was a divorce decree (see copy in our photo section.)
Ann Mary divorced William in 1893, five full years after he had deserted her and the children placed in the orphanage. What became of William and Ann Mary....we would love to know. William was living with his Brother in the 1910 census and there the trail ends. Did Ann Mary remarry, we wish we knew..........

This page is dedicated to Artie Marie VanBibber. She was born out of wedlock and probably unwanted and this, although short, is her story...........
On Nov. 8, 1894, Ethel VanBibber, the orphaned daughter of William & Ann Mary Sutton Vanbibber, gave birth to a daughter. Barely fifteen years old, with no family and no husband, she found herself alone. The birth certificate named Clinton Strong as the Father but there is no reason to believe that beyond being present at the conception, he ever took a part in his daughter's life. We know nothing of the first 3 years of Artie Marie's life. We pick up the threads of her story in 1900, where Ethel and Artie Marie were recorded on the Warrick Co. census. Ten years later, again from the census, we find Ethel, married to William Crow, no mention of Artie Marie who would have been thirteen. Years into my research of this family I finally found an answer to the question......where was Artie Marie?
The discovery of a Marriage License issued to Artie Marie and George Southwell (view copy in our photos).
Her birthdate had been falsified and she was in fact only 13 when she married George who was 20 years older.
We next found Artie Marie in the Wesley Chapel Cemetery. She died in 1918, barely twenty one years old. The saddest part of this story is that Ethel had kept Artie Marie's birth a secret from even the closest family member. My Mother-in-law who would have been Artie Marie's Aunt swears no one in the family had ever heard of her. There is probably much more to her story that we will never know. Many questions left unanswered. I'm just thankful that I could do for her in death what no one had done for her in life......acknowledge that she is truely......OURS. Bless you, you are lost no longer.
NOTE; Artie Marie is buried beside her Husband, George. The inscription reads; ~George M. Southwell, Sept. 28, 1878-March 17, 1941 - Artie M, His Wife, March 30, 1879, Nov. 21, 1918~

The saddest part of this story is that Ethel had kept Artie Marie's birth a secret from even the closest family member. My Mother-in-law who would have been Artie Marie's Aunt swears no one in the family had ever heard of her. There is probably much more to her story that we will never know. Many questions left unanswered. I'm just thankful that I could do for her in death what no one had done for her in life......acknowledge that she is truely......OURS. Bless you, you are lost no longer.
NOTE; Artie Marie is buried beside her Husband, George. The inscription reads; ~George M. Southwell, Sept. 28, 1878-March 17, 1941 - Artie M, His Wife, March 30, 1879, Nov. 21, 1918~
