[from Providence Notes in the Butler County News, Jan. 3, 1929]
"Mr. James P. Burkett of Morrow School died Dec. 28 at 2:25 and was buried the following day. He had been in declining health for several years. He had been an invalid for the past year and a half. Rev. Ivey held the funeral services. He was a member of the Baptist church at Mt. Pisgah for several years. He leaves seven sons and four daughters and his last wife. His first wife preceded him to his grave some twenty years ago. He was laid beside her. A son and daughter preceded him to the grave some years ago."

His place of burial came from his death certificate. His obituary gives us the place of burial of his first wife, Susannah Lee Burkett.
