Cedar Twp., Woods County Fire - ca. 1918

"I have been told of a fire in Woods County, perhaps in Cedar Twp, about 1918.  Three children were believed killed in that fire (maybe others).  The known names are: Melvin, Alice and Galen OSBURN.  Have seen the surname as OSBORN, also.  These children, along with their father George (spelled Gorge on his headstone) Harvey OSBURN, siblings Dollie, Oscar and Dazie are buried in White Horse Cemetery.  Dazie married Frank MORGAN and that name appears on her marker even tho' she is buried with the OSBURNs.  All of the headstones are 'home made.'   I'm searching for info on that fire.  If you have knowledge about this fire or the family, please share. Thanks, Linda, for posting this." -- Dixie Lee Kennedy   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
