___________________________
The stone of William B Blue was partially buried by his Civil War stone. I could not find that he died in Civil War service but it is likely. His father Thomas filed for a Civil War pension under his son's name in 1885.

Dates from the original stone:

B: Jun 26, 1840
D: July 24, 1862

William was the son of Thomas and Allie Blue.
