Additional Description: Pioneer frontier graves were often surrounded by rocks, sea shells or pieces of household pottery. Without readily available transportation to take the deceased to a cemetery, family members were often buried on the property shortly after death. Research of early census records suggest this is the grave of James McNeill's first wife Martha J. (b-1849) and his son Donald J. (b-1870). They died before 1880.
