While reading the stones at the North Grove cemetery, I found Jesse's stone in a pile face down. I had to wipe the dirt from it to see what it said. I was so touched by the stone I had to research the family and see what happened to them. It's so sad they had to leave their child behind when they moved on.
I have been informed he will have a new headstone , like the ones issued for the Civil War soldiers from 1860,s thru the 1890's. When the stone arrives I will post a picture.
His original stone which was broken in half, will be restored and set behind the new one.
This is my tribute to a Civil War Soldier.
