"I found both Thomas and Jane's gravestones. His was standing upright and in fairly good condition. Hers was flat on the ground and nearly buried with grass and dirt so that the entire stone could not be read. I didn't uncover or disturb the stone. Both were located in a large rectangle plot of the Hunt family. Thomas' some distance from Jane's. Jane's next to the main monument of D. W. Hunt." (Eleanor Witty)
