After years and years of trying to find where my great grandfather
John Waughtel is buried, I, today, came across some information that
has somehow slipped past me and how I now regret it as I shall never
be able to traverse to Jennings county now - - I have information
stating that John Waughtel has a large lot that may hold 4 graves. Is
there anyone in and/or near Scipio who could check this out.
Evidently the only marker known to be there is Kate Waughtel (she
being the 2nd widow of John). Not knowing how long John had had the
lot, there is the greatest of great possibility that Eliza Ann (Keith)
Waughtel (John's first wife and my great grandmother) may be one, and
also John himself may be one. From the note the Lot is #86 Block A
and from other names I am "assuming" it is the Scipio Cemetery. If
there is a list known showing Kate, then this would be the cemetery I
would like to have checked if at all possible. I could not believe
seeing this note this morning as I never felt that I would ever find
where John & Eliza Ann might be buried at. Is there anyone there that
can check this for me. Thank you so much for taking the time to read
this.
