Contributed by Celtic Giraffe Research. Tom from the OGS told me from looking at a map he had that Mary Bishir is buried between a Hopkins and a Coon. I could see no Coon tombstone, and this is the only Hopkins stone I saw in the old section of the cemetery. The stone with the arrow pointing to it is not legible.
