Both buried in Plainview Cemetery, on hill above Plainview Church, Plum Orchard, Jackson Co, WV. (info from Erma Casto Robie, no marker)
Was there one more child, Pety who died young??/?? Probably not, since in 1900 and 1910 the child count was 6-6. Mom just remembered a Petey who we decided was in another family.
