The Tuckers were known to have lived in Dow, Arch, and Hartshorne. The infant children who died are buried in the Sulphur Cemetery outside Hartshorne in unmarked graves. The headstones are just pieces of sandstone but no one is alive to indicate just which grave belongs to what person.
There is no known headstone, his grave is marked by a piece of sandstone. Hawk Ervin was grandson to Thomas, and knew where he was buried, but Hawk has since passed. Thomas had nicknames of "George" and "Doc". It was common for the Tuckers to have nicknames.
Thomas was my Great-greatgrandfather. JDH
Update to above, October 18, 2013: While in the Hartshorne Library this obituary was discovered in the Hartshorne Sun Newspaper stating: Mr. Thomas J. Tucker of this place died last Friday evening at 3:00 o'clock. He was suffering with measles and fever. Mr. Tucker leaves a wife and eight children, five girls and three boys. Three girls and one boy are married. Mr. Tucker was about 50 years of age, and has been a resident of this and surrounding communities for a number of years. The bereaved family have the greatest sympathy of their many friends in their sorrow. Interment was made at the Sulphur Springs cemetery.
