Stone Family in Fillmore
By Anonymous — Wednesday, April 7th, 2010
Does anyone know the story on Alfred and Nate Stone who were early Fillmore area residents? I am working on their story and would love any details that you might have. They were both hunters and Kennie Fine has a story about them in his book. Recently we found 4 Stone children buried at Bardsdale Cemetery in 1878. These 4 kids died within a week of each other, so they probably had diphtheria, but I am not sure. Perhaps they were buried on family property that later became Bardsdale Cemetery. Bardsdale Cemetery was not formed until 1895, and the little graves date from 1878. If anyone has information about this family, please give me a call, Marie Wren, 524-4044. |
