�The two Wrights and the three Branch babies are covered with thin boxes made of concrete with the inscriptions very crudely made. The weather over the years has almost wiped the writing out and the concrete is badly broken from age. In a few years, the lettering will be completely unreadable.� �Noted Jim and Maydell Talley March 1, 1981
