O.K. I have to jump in here since we are discussing burial places in or
around Scio.  My ancestor Samuel Deford lived and died near that area and I
have never been able to find his grave.  He would have died aroung 1870 if I
remember correctly.
I don't know what he died of or where he is buried.  His wife's name was
Lucintha Jane Stillwell Horner Deford.  She divorced her first husband to
marry Samuel and then when he died she married a guy named William Harris
who also died.  She gained property from all three of her husbands and I
have long suspected that she buried Samuel in the yard somewhere.
Interesting family, for sure.
