Crown Hill Cemetery - Indiana

Crown Hill Cemetery - Indiana

Cones Descendants - Section 19

William Washington Cones and his wife, Margaret Henrietta (Bayes) Cones. Below, their daughter Nora Mae (Cones) Appleget and her Husband Edward Appleget.

The headstone of Sarah Myers is a mystery we just stumbled on as we continue our work on the Cones Family Book. Apparently, according to Crown Hill Cemetery records, 
Cora Frances Cones, the fourth child to William and Margaret Cones, she is in the same crypt as this Sarah Myers. So they are sharing this grave according to the Cemetery Records. However, the information has to be some what inaccurate being that 
Cora Frances was born some time between 1869-1871 and she died at the age of 4.

Crown Hill records also indicate that Cora was buried on Oct. 11, 1907, which has to be none other then an exhuming or re*burial date. Why or how? We do not know. 
  • Who is this Sarah Myers and where does she fit in the Cones family? 
  • Why is she sharing this grave with Cora Frances Cones?
Notice the date on Sarah Myers is well before William Washington was born. How does Sarah Myers fit in to this Cones Family? If you have any information on this, we would like to hear from you. Please comment under this post or message us at the side of this website.  Thank you.


 


 



UPDATE:

In working hard on this mystery, our search has led us to believe that Sarah Myers IS the Mother to Margaret Henrietta (Bayes) Cones. 

However, this still has not answered the question: Why was Cora buried in the same crypt with Sarah Myers? Nor does this confirm or explain the dates given, that we presume to be the exhume or re*burial date that Crown Hill Cemetery has indicated in their records.
