** Golden Mullens was a neighbor of mine for many years. While working in the coal mines a car ran over him and cut off both his legs. Golden died a few months back and was buried in the Handschumaker cemetery but his legs are buried here.

A death record exists for an Infant Holcomb 2-8-1923 2-9-1923 Child of G. Zain and Molly Giles Holcomb, since the parents are buried in this cemetery the infant may be buried here also.
