"McCarthy stated that it was also the burial site for the victims of Quantrill's Raid in 1863. Six individual victim markers remain, according to Armitage. But McCarthy also said that once Oak Hill Cemetery was created in 1865, the victims' bodies were moved there. Oak Hill sits at E. 15th St., six blocks east of Haskell Avenue."

There is another memorial for Simeon Montgomery Thorp in New York, which appears to be a cenotaph. If the original grave of Simeon Montgomery Thorp was moved to Oak Hill Cemetery after it opened, then this memorial is also considered a cenotaph.

Lawrence before the raid --
https://exhibits.lib.ku.edu/exhibits/show/quantrill/quantrillraid/quantrillbefore
By the summer of 1863, Lawrence was a thriving town with a population of about 1,650. Settled by strong supporters of the free- state movement, and home to men like James Lane and Charles Robinson, Lawrence was regarded as a stronghold of antislavery conviction by Missouri southerners.
Massachusetts Street divided the town site nearly in the center, and was comprised of businesses along both sides from the river for some three sections. Businesses listed in the 1859 directory for Lawrence included a foundry and machine works, saddle and harness shop, druggist, architect, attorney, several hotels, including the Eldridge, and stores, a bakery and photograph gallery. The University did not yet exist. No bridge was in place across the river, and a ferry service provided the only means of getting from one side to the other.
