A couple of questions. Is William Earl Bell's father (also William) buried there? I'm guessing his birth at about 1820? His mother, Mary? I guess her at about 1833. I'm missing death dates on two of William Earl and Della's children (and of course, burial sites): Nettie Ryan, b. July 1879 (d before 1900?) Charley Ryan, b Dec 1882. Thanks for any help on this.
