Charles Malcolm McGregor
Picture shown at right is inscribed on the south side of the tall monument with his mother's name on the west side. (Olive McGregor). Cemetery records show no record of Charles being interred, so this must be a memorial only.
Most likely he was buried in Cedar Hill, an older cemetery on the east side of town that has burials dating back to the early 1860's. Many families that had family buried in Cedar Hill later moved them to the newer, more prestigious Park Cemetery when it opened in 1879.
