Little Blue River Baptist Church Cemetery

Children of John and Rachel Derrickson (3 on stone) (Note from me: I think these readings assumed these children were John and Rachel's because they are buried next to them. However, John was still married to Mary Parker (Packer?) during the life-span of each of these children. I do not know if they are John and Mary's children. Mary would have been 43, 39, and 38 respectively when these children were born so it was physiologically possible for her to have had them. If they were Rachel's then they were illegimate. Have also found websites listing all of these as the children of James and Sarah Derrickson. That is how I have listed them in the FGS).

p. 31, Unmarked Graves
Mary Derrickson consort of David T. Derrickson (Note from me: I initially thought this was John Derrickson's wife; however in the search for John's father I have begun to wonder if I am wrong and this is a David's wife. David who I do not know. This death year matches the 1850 Mortality census so I don't know if that Mary is this Mary. Our entire family history has always assumed that the 1850 Mortality census Mary was John's Mary but now I am not sure. This birth date DOES NOTE match the Packer information I have for Mary).
