More photos of the church, and a photo album of the gravestones in the old
section of the cemetery, posted on Richard Grammes’ website.
Photos of Arner gravestones at
St. Paul’s Church:
FAYETTA (SELL) ARNER, 1825-1860, (first wife of Reuben5 Arner). [gravestone]
[The
8th row east from the highway, the 13th stone north of
the church building.]
[only
one found]
Another
photo of her gravestone, taken under better lighting conditions and
shows
the
inscription better, also posted on Richard
Grammes’ website. [Note, however,
that
the stone actually says born “1825”, which is correct.]
[NOTE: I don’t know whether or not there should be
more Arner gravestones at that church. There don’t seem to be many missing
stones in that graveyard; but, as usual, there are some illegible older
stones.]
