4 miles north of Panther Junction in Big Bend National Park you will find the grave of Nina Hannold. The grave site is one of the few visible traces of Curtis and Nina Hannold's pioneer homestead. In 1908 the Hannolds moved here from Oklahoma by covered wagon. While Nina took care of the ranch and 3 children, Curtis supplemented their income by teaching school in Dugout Wells, 8 miles away. At age 29, Nina contracted uremic poisoning during pregnancy and died September 30, 1911. She had asked to be buried on this hill overlooking the spring where she had often read to the children in the shade of the cottonwoods, so she was. Curtis outlived Nina by 29 years, dying in Alpine, Texas in 1940.
