Cemetery information: There is a stone monument in the Widow Moore Cemetery, which is located on Constitution Road approximately 450 just 3/4 of a mile west of Colchester, Illinois where there is an inscription of "in loving remembrance of Julia a. Wife of John Harper died at Salt Lake City June 7, 1888 age 34 years 11 months 21 days Our Julia at rest. This monument is very large for this cemetery indicating that John Harper must of had some money. Her inscription is on the west side of the stone. On the south side of the stone is another inscription reading Elizabeth born August 8, 1883 died 8 months. This stone is in the middle far west side of the cemetery. Just North of the HARPER stone is the MILLIKIN Stone of Lucy and Arthur's. This one has to be put up over the original one because it is much newer and very large granite monument, with two small stones in front of the main stone, East, Lucy Millikin: 1821-1882 Arthur Millikin: 1817-1882
