McIntosh Cemetery - located on Jim Ridge, Jackson County. Read November 14, 1985 by Tom Bonnett and Troy O. Fisher:
William Bonnett, Jr. died May 6,1892 age 81 years, 1 month and 2 day
Leuvicy Ann Vandyne Bonnett (his wife) died 1895 age 76 years
William A. Bonnett Son of S. and E. Bonnett died 1878
Note: Cemetery is deplorable condition - lots of graves but just rocks for markers. The above names and dates are as they appear on markers. Note: The wife of William Bonnett Jr. spelled Leuvicy Ann on marker - the records show Levisa Ann. William Bonnett Jr. died on Jim Ridge, Jackson County, the headwaters of Thirteen Mile Creek, and not on the waters of Poca as the record shows.
