---------------------------------------------------
NOTE: There is some doubt as to where little William is actually buried. His funeral card shows Wartrace Cemetery in Johnson Co. Illinois. However, the Illinois Deaths And Stillbirths records have him buried in Morris Cemetery in Jackson Co. Illinois.

If anyone can shed light on this discrepancy, please suggest an edit, or leave a public message for me. Bucky Hydal, Jan. 4, 2015

Cause of death: Accidental; burns from hot coffee spilled by Grandpa Hazel. William's parents, Roscoe and Jessie (Cletcher) Hazel divorced soon after. This may explain the burial site puzzle. Jessie may have insisted on a burial near her people in Jackson County, after the burial card (that designated Wartrace Cemetery) was printed (see photo).
