If you have information about the infant's grave please email Junior Warren.
According to Junior Warren, " When I was about 8 years old back in
the 1960's, my mother told me a baby was buried in this grave at Yocum
Pond. Uncle Richard, a Yocum Pond gravedigger, believed all the Missouri
relatives were dead, so there was no one to decorate the grave. Perhaps,
there is a relative somewhere out in the U.S. or overseas. I've always
put a flower on the grave every Memorial Day that I have been stateside
through the years. This is a close-up of the headstone, which is
a carved rock, Since I'm no longer a spring chicken; I hope a relative
finds this infant ancestor, who sleeps beside a Fly grave, at Yocum Pond
Cemetery, near Reeds Spring. My artistic wife, Christy, created the
floral vase this year."(Photo by Junior Warren)
