Note from
Donna (Andis) Paddock:
After years of extensive research and family information,
Jimmy & Norma Andis still had not located William’s grave. They decided to
visit Unionville, Missouri, where he supposedly died. Their first stop was
the Unionville Courthouse. After some time of browsing the Courthouse
Cemetery Book, they found that William and his son were buried in the
Lupton Cemetery, a private cemetery outside of town. The county
commissioner gave them directions to the cemetery, located beside
Thunderhead Lake. They drove through a field and around the lake to find
the fenced in area showing “Lupton Cemetery” above the gate. With a
penciled rendition of the layout of the cemetery, they found the two
unmarked graves, separate from the others. Elated at their discovery, they
returned two years later with a tombstone for William. Not knowing exactly
which grave was which, they placed the tombstone in the middle, thus
marking both graves.
