Since there were no grave markers on "Mary Della (Huntington) Carpenters' plot" (My GG Grandmother) nor her daughters' plot, Maud B. Carpenter (who had died at the age of 7), I , Kenneth Gene Carpenter, took 2 Markers which I made out of Silicon Carbide, and then polished. I then flew to Chicago and drove from Chicago to Oakland Cemetery, Lyons, Clinton County, IA, on September 30, 1999, to make arrangements to have the 2 graves marked. They were placed in cement put on the graves by a professional. with permission of the cemetery authority.

The smaller stone next to the tall on rises above about 20 inches. Inscribed across curved part of that stone is " MOTHER ". since it placed on the west side of the taller stone which on that side is the Maryette Huntington is scribed I can only assume that Mary Delia Huntington Carpenter, whos Flat headstone is 2nd from right in photo and was living in in Lyons along with sister Martha Huntington Strope, had placed it. George Washington Huntington is scribed on the East side of taller obelisk. George paid for six space of which 4 are used. the records show.
This southside view you are looking at there is nothing written on the taller obelisk. George is on the side on the 2 newer stones.

I took this picture standing on the East side of gravesite maybe 15 feet away. the Height of the taller one is about 6 feet. as the incription is eye level on both sides. photo was taken in 2000 one year later after I had the 2 flat markers installed.
