A photo posted on the Washington & Lee University site for this cemetery, was added herein on 17 Sep 2017. It is not legible and is unusual for such a new marker to be covered in black already.
According to Nanalou Sauder, in a 1994 article titled Madison Dunlap, David Lowman and Miller's Mill, "In an interview with Mildred Coe, who was a Dunlap relation and visited the Dunlap house as a child, I learned some interesting things. She remembered that there was a large brick-drying yard outside the kitchen and, behind that, a three-seat, one-door outhouse made of brick. There were other buildings that included an icehouse about halfway down the hill to the west (long since gone, although the bricks were saved); a log smokehouse, still there but going downhill rapidly; and a log barn by the spring branch, which is still in use but does not belong to us. Others remember the house in the 1930s, including, of course, Lois and Halstead Dunlap and Dot Newman, who remembers going to parties when the dining room was used for dancing." It was presented to the Ignorance Club, in October 1994. Mrs. Sauder was a local school teacher and lived in Madison's home from 1965 to 2010.
