  • Notes 
    • 1. Chauncey is listed as a co-lot owner of #19 with Frank Green at theLaurel Hill Cemetery. It is possible that he and Nancy are buried there in unmarked graves. Oddly Frank Green and Gladys are buried in lot #10with Gladys' first husband Bruce and their son Clinton. With the loss ofall cemetery records prior to the 1950's due to a fire, this informationmay never be found.
