Cenotaph's The original family cemetery [located at present Tagus] destroyed by land development in the 1940's. The original "red" base stone for Yancy Bailey Stokes / Elizabeth Emmaline "Lizzie" Moore were found in a ditch and given to George Richard Coats. George's son George Lee Coats inherited the headstone and made it his mission to get it repaired back in a cemetery. Visalia Public Cemetery was accommodating, and today the obelisk headstone is in the Stokes section of the Visalia Cemetery, of course without the body of Yancy or his wife Elizabeth. ref: Visalia History Blog 2014.
