While the 1900 census shows his birth as Oct 1861, this is incorrect. He is listed in the 1860 census of Adams, Hillsdale, Michigan as being born in 1859, Age 1. The family is still living here in 1870 where he is again listed as b. 1859 in Michigan. By 1880, he has moved to Haynesville, Pratt, Kansas, where he is again shown as b. 1859 Michigan.
caption for the first photo:
This is the exact grave of Willard Walters. My notebook is lying where his marker would be, if he had one. The grave is on the other side of that space, which is the east.
caption for the second photo:
Willard Walters has an unmarked grave, pictured here. On the center right is a marker, that of Mary Morris. Her grave is two to the south (right) of Willard's grave. In between them is the unmarked grave of Thomas A. Morris. I have placed a notebook on the spot where Willard Walters's marker would be, if he had one. It appears at the center left of the photo. In a straight line to the top (east) there is a decapitated marker, which was that of John Brumbaugh. In one further row east is the double marker of Olive (left) and Robert (right) Horton. Willard is exactly in line with Olive Horton. Distance makes the perspective look off, but it is not. The rows in this specific section of the cemetery are further apart than in the later parts of the cemetery.
