Hi Joann and Dick,
After seeing the posting on the Blog and Gary sending me your email, I thought you may be interested to know about the other stone there. It is very hard to read and is so old, but still standing.
This is the tombstone of Catherine Brooker the wife of Jacob that came to the US. She is also buried in Fairview Cemetery north of Winterset. Her tombstone lies to the left of the big Brooker stone of John Brooker and his wife. John was her son. She and her husband lived with their daughter in old age in Granavillo, IA. The daughter and Jacob are buried there. After the death of her husband it is evident that she came south to Madison county to live with her sons family.
