Minnie Mae (Wagnon) Birchitt wrote the following about 1980:
"I want to tell you about an episode that Granny (Elizabeth Easley Wagnon) told me about. She said Grandfather (Perry) Wagnon built a couple of coffins and buried a couple of persons he was not supposed to, and that was the reason he had to leave home, sick with measles. She never saw him again. He had made a track on a foot log and she covered the footprint with a piece of bark and kept it a long time until the first rise, I suppose.
She wept when she talked about Aunt (Sarah) Jane. . It was after the Civil War."
