Regarding the burial of Thomas
Jefferson Isner and wife Martha Ellen (Phillips) Isner. E-mail
correspondence with Margaret Isner Simpson on March 4, 2008. |
|
"The dual
highway going east out of Elkins went right through the area where
some of the Isners lived. There is a mountain called Isner Mountain
and a Creek called Isner creek. If you leave Elkins going to Beverly
you will go over the creek. If you leave Elkins going to Harman you
will be on Isner Mountain.
When this road went through, it went through the Isner Burial
grounds and J. Herman Isner and my Uncle Howard were there with the
surveyors etc. when they decided what graves would have to be moved.
Thomas Jefferson and his wife were two that had to be moved. If I am
not mistaken there was no stone or if so, it would have been a field
stone. They finally decided where the graves were. They dug into the
soil and all they found was dark soil. J. Herman Isner had their
remains moved to Maplewood Cemetery at Elkins and had monuments placed
for them.
I do not know for sure if it was the exact grave or not. I remember
J. Herman Isner telling us that Uncle Howard thought the graves ran
down hill and Herman said that could not be. At the same time J.
Herman Isner had another grave to be moved because of the road. He
said the person was a young woman and had died in the 30's when her
casket was open she looked like she had just died. Of course Thomas
and his wife were not embalmed and probably put in wooden caskets. My
mother spoke of going by grave yards in the night and seeing
phosphorous coming out of the graves. I think it is called Fox Fire." |
