Jack Fly added - "The following may shed some light on this mystery. Using dowsing rods I worked the area of the Beeson graves. The rods indicate that there is no one buried in the grave marked by the headstone "Infant daughter of A.C. & L. F. Beeson." My guess is that your mystery child is actually the" Infant Daughter". In any event the headstone for "Infant Daughter of A. C. & L. F." is marking an empty grave." |

Commerce Bank's address: 715 Main, Cassville, MO 65625 Vicky Jenkins said that Dutch Beeson, her father, said when they were digging a grave for her granddad, Estel Beeson, that a body, that of a baby, was found where he was supposed to be buried. {he was suppose to buried on the other side of her Uncle Everett and before Eunice}. She said that was in Aug 1976. They stopped digging when they realized there was already a body there. All of Albert and Laura's babies are marked, Olan, John, Eunice and an Infant girl. At the time there were no missing Ennis/Ennes babies so the belief is this child was buried before the family started the cemetery {that would be before 1870} but no one knows for sure. |
Beeson Family - World War II
Lawrence Beeson, Leonard Beeson and Earl Lyall during WW II. This is of two brothers and a brother-in-law. This photo was taken in the front yard of Everett and Edna Beeson's place, looking away from the house to the front gate. On the other side of the gate is the road. The house was on the same road as the Ennis Cemetery, now the property belongs to Doris Lester's son, Gary. Submitted by: Marilyn Beeson |
