To this date, Jane and Jacob's final resting place is unknown. Confirmed resources note that the cemetery where Jacob and his wife were located - has been covered over by the neighboring Baptist church parking lot.

Descendants of the Cones Family arriving at the location of the old cemetery, asked the Head members of the church if they could help in this research. It was declined and later remarked that they moved the graves of all who remained in the Old Baptist Cemetery, so they could pave way for a bigger parking lot. Understandable.

When asked about the locations of the remains or why their headstones were not with their graves but tossed over in to the woods beside the old cemetery, the reply was declined and those asking were asked to remove them self from the premises.
Sources since this first finding, raise questions that concerned descendants of the Cones Family.

- If this is true, why were the remains moved and buried in unmarked, undisclosed graves?
-Where are the graves? It was noted that they were in a local cemetery near by, however, there is no record or confirmation to the remains being removed and reburied. Any further questions were unanswered and declined.
 
With out jumping to conclusion, our final findings with most others, is believed that the Old Baptist Cemetery is still the last known location of the remains for those who were buried in the old cemetery. Since their is no evidence at this time to conclude or verify the removal or the final location of the remains after their removal.

--- To be fair, it is important to note that each state has different laws in tact that disclose how cemeteries are protected - if any protection is rendered by that state. At the time of the search by various descendants, there was no known laws of protection for the Old Baptist Cemetery or any other known cemetery in the state of Kentucky. Since then some laws have changed and some remain the same. ---
