Dear Raymond, I am a great-grandson of William and Lucinda Cable.Did you know,they
actually had six children.Minnie was the first,she died a few years before her father.She
is buried in AspenGrove Cem.-Burlington,under the name Minnie Wiengart,she has a very
ornate little headstone.Lucinda is there with the Wilder last name.William is there
also,but has no headstone,Ive been saving money to purchase a stone to mark his grave.I
have some info,about Orpha,she may have been married a few times.I have been to her grave,
she is buried with the Valandingham family. William and Lucinda,seem to have traveled all
over the U.S.,before settling down in Burlington. Orpha was born in Leadville,CO. About
the time of her birth there were some mines near Leadville and one of the big ones was the
Orpha Mine.I often wonderd if she may have been named after that mine.Please contact me so
we can share info,I have been trying to trace the Cables back to Pennsylvania.I think I
have the right fa!
milies,but have been unable to connect them with each other.
