ive been to quite a few on that guys list in douglas county. the one that really struck me was the farmer cemetary. not sure why i was walking through it but i was and noticed that just about half of the graves there were young children and infants
When I first came to Washington in 1968, there was a store and gas station at the intersection of Hwy 2 and 172. I got gas there. No trace of it exists today. Only the old Grange Hall still stands there. In 1970, my uncle and cousins were trail-biking (motorcycles) in the hills of Mass. and stopped for lunch at the site of an old farmhouse. We discovered that the clearing we were resting in was the family cemetery, and all the headstones had fallen over. We brushed the leaves off them and found that more than half of the stones were infants and children who died in the 1700's. One memorable inscription read: "___ ____ - Age 7 - Fell out of a tree". Child mortality was greater back then.
