    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Martin Classification: Cemetery Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/2AIBAIB/400 Message Board Post: My brother in-law stumpled across this headstone out in the middle of no where in Martin County Kentucky. It was on the side of a hill miles away from any main road. The closest town he believes is Warfield. There were no other headstones or for that matter anything nearby. He here is the information on the headstone: W.H. Simpkins Born 9-21-1871 Died 5-5-1943 That is all there was. I looked this up on ancestry and found that the man's full name is William H. Simpkins. I found him on the 1900/1910 census and it looks like his wife's name is Laura (hard to read). His children are Elija Nov 1895; Ida May Nov 1897; and John Oct 1899; Mary 1902; ? (daughter); Luke 1909.
