Carwood Cemetery county book has a list of burials November 5, 1925, of people buried in the cemetery. They started this cemetery in 1893. Miss Brummett / Brummit / Brumitt is listed in Lot 15 Space 2. There were 48 people buried between 1892 to 11-5-1925.
The State of Kansas started keeping official records of births and death on July 1, 1911.
Haven't found anything yet. Reading old Wichita County Kansas newspapers, county history books, federal and state census, etc. Carwood Cemetery in northwest Wichita County Kansas has people from the surrounding counties of Greeley, Logan, and Wallace Counties buried in it, also.
Researched a Miss Cora Brumitt, Tribune, Greeley County, Kansas, school teacher October 1901 to May 1902. After the school year she returned to her home in Hays, Kansas. She did not return to teach that winter and was staying home and taking a vacation. Never found her ever returning in the Greeley County Republican newspaper.
When people died of a disease like typhoid fever, diphtheria, etc. they were buried quickly and sometimes at night.
Miss Brummett might have had a connection to someone buried in a lot around her lot in the cemetery. Haven't figured anything out yet.
