The land where Elisha (son of James Luna) and Eliza Gray Luna are buried near Zanoni, Mo., in Ozark Co., has recently sold to non-family members. Some Ozark County cousins are proposing to put a monument at the Smith Chapel Cemetery (not too far away and where several other Lunas are buried). The names/dates being proposed for the monument are listed below. As you can see, we don't have death dates for all the "children." If you can make corrections to this, please do so -- if it's going to be "carved in stone," we want it to be correct. Family history says that Elisha and Eliza wanted to be buried on their land. They share one stone, and it's in good condition. The former Luna-related owners had fenced it away from the rest of the hill/pasture. BUT other Luna "children" made similar decisions, to be buried on their own land. Family history says the wife of Elisha Jones Luna, Mary Patrick, wanted to be buried under a certain apple tree near their home. That's where both E. J. and Mary Luna were buried, and I'm told that cattle now roam over their graves and have knocked down the headstones. Peter Pitman Luna is buried at the Patrick Cemetery in Ozark County, but there is no date for his death on his stone. Please help us to get accurate information! In memory of Elisha and Eliza Gray Luna, both born 1819, died 1900. Buried one mile east of Zanoni on land they homesteaded when they came to Ozark County from Bedford County, Tennessee, in 1855. Their children: Harriet Luna Shepherd, 1837-1917 Nancy Luna Upton, 1839- Linnie (Malinda) Luna Upton, 1840-1934 John T. Luna, 1842-1926 James Luna, 1844-1889 Eliza Luna Cochran, 1848-1922 Richard T. Luna, 1848-1907 Peter P. Luna, 1849- Elisha Jones Luna, 1851-1933 Wm. Washington (Uncle Bill) Luna, 1852-1933 Samuel P. Luna, 1855-1928 Alexander H. Luna, 1855-1939 Austin C. Luna, 1858-1940 Marion Jackson Luna, 1860-1937 Lycurgus C. Luna, 1862- Amelia Luna Grisham Moody, 1864 -
