I am seeking information about about some relatives who are possibly buried at Mt. Marion Cemetery in Strawn.
Specifically, I am looking for Isaac David (I. D) (a/k/a Dee) Holt who died on 17 July 1909. He was a miner. I have no specifics on his death. What I do know is:
* his father- and mother-in-law are buried at Mt. Marion. They are Thomas J. and Sarah Cowart who had lived in Strawn.
* his daughter, Virgie, is buried next to the Cowarts; she died as an infant in 1907.
* Dee and Armecia are living with the Cowarts in 1900 in Strawn.
* The Cowarts are living in Stephens Co. in 1910.
* his wife, Armecia, and their 4 surviving daughters are found at the Orphans home in Corsicana on the 1910 census.
* He was a member of the Oddfellows and they paid out a few weeks of support as well as money for burial expenses. I have copies of the few records that were retained or not lost.
For these reasons, I strongly feel he probably is buried at Mt. Marion. Do you know of any way to find out where he is buried? Are there any unmarked graves there?
I've done some research but come up empty-handed for years. But, as I said, I had some dynamic luck in finding the information from the Oddfellows Orphan's home in finding what I have already related.
The other man I am looking for is Thomas Washington Cowart, a son of T. J. and Sarah. A family member says that he is buried at Strawn. I have no death date at all on him.
Thanks for anything at all...
Any ideas???
