The E. E. Bradfield who bought the burial plots was Easton E. Bradfield (1866-1922) and his wife was Ellen Jane Cox (1870-1959). Easton was born in Indiana as was Ellen Jane. Both were living in Butler County KS when they married in 1895. On 6 Mar 1902 Easton bought twenty acres in sec 27 of 14N-E4, about four miles south of Chandler, but he worked in town running an eatery called The Border City Restaurant. Though the family didn’t stay long in Lincoln County, Easton’s father the Rev. Elijah Bradfield (1827-1910) did. He homesteaded in Osage Township about halfway between Agra and Kendrick, and he is buried in Tryon’s Old George Cemetery. The Lincoln County Oklahoma History recalls him as “a singing minister at the Union Friends Church, located seven miles north and a half-mile west of Chandler” (LCOH 91).
