    • Headstone reads: Arty C., dau of J. M. & M. Squires, died Sep 28 1879, Aged 25 Ys 23 Ds. The legibility of the inscription is poor, and it is possible that the 23 days is actually 25 or 28. The birthdate was calculated using the 23 days figure.
    Notes 
    • With her sisters, during the Civil War she sought refuge in the caves near their homestead to escape raiders who plundered the area. Her fiance was killed in a hunting accident shortly before they were to be married. She died of typhoid fever.
