The "Buck Elk" Cemetery is the Pilot Knob Cemetery at the Pilot Knob Baptist Church north of Summerfield as you go toward Linn. There are no Lights listed in the cemetery inventory published by the Osage County Historical Society, but then there are a lot of field stones with no names. Harold Green is in row 29 and Alva M., Minnie E., Terry Lee, Susan M. and John A. Green are all in row 30 of that cemetery. William L.
