We visited this cemetery in November of 2001. There are several
unmarked graves and one marked grave that were not on the web page.
The marked grave not on your list is:

In Memory of G M CURTIS,
Born Oct 1 AD 1853, Died July 3 AD 1876.

I have made a list of all marked graves if you would like it.

I am related to the Dreyer and Wendt families. According to family
legend, Mr. Curtis was a cattle foreman on his way back home from a
cattle drive up north. He was staying in lodging across from the
present cemetery site. He was thought to be carrying a lot of money
from the sale of the cattle. During the night Mr. Curtis was attacked
and killed. The money was never found.
