They are buried at Miner Cemetery, in the Doss community of Dent Co. along with many members of their family. Fountain's son Richard Henry Welch married Mary Elizabeth Brickey, the daughter of Cornelius & Keziah Brickey. Billy & Minerva's daughter America Clementine married Jacob Yankee and raised five children. I don't have another Jacob in my database but that doesn't mean there isn't another in the family. I hope this helps; I'd love to hear from any fellow Welch researcher.
