There are also 3 white slabs with no information

* there are three lines between the birth and death date. I can't read much of it but there is "Battle of Jackson" in the second line. According to the IL Honor Roll he was a Sgt in Co G 9th IL Inf.

** the name appears as Esther-Roy M on the stone, I'm not sure who the dates are for as there are only one set.

*** the following children are on the sides of the stone with their date of birth. Artamiss 27 Jul 1849, John T 08 Jan 1851, Mary A 22 Feb 1855, Florence 18 Jun 1858, Margaret 07 Sep 1861, Martha J 18 Jun 1863, Jeraiam L 26 Jun 1866, Milton 03 Feb 1868, Samuel GK 03 Jul 1871
