Earliest burial March 1, 1908, J. A. Dennington (Six people buried in 1908)
The obvious omission of persons who died before 1908 is unknown. The town was inhabited at its present location along the railroad as early as 1895, and was a booming little town by 1905.
Earliest date of birth February 29, 1842 (three people)
