(7) Ritchie County Historical Society (David M. Scott, Editor), Ritchie County, West Virginia Cemeteries through 1993, 
McClain Printing Co, Parsons, WV, 1995, Entry on p. 504 for Cox Cemetery reads:  Thomas W. Bayne, d. Sept 6 1880, age 56 
yrs; Co K, 10th WV Inf, CW.  There is also this conflicting entry on p. 596 for Mt. Pisgah Cemetery:  William T. Bane, 
no date, unmarked, with reference to Minnie Kendall Lowther's "History of Ritchie County," p. 341, and "Ritchie County 
in History and Romance," pp. 297-298.  An adjacent entry on p. 596 for the Mt. Pisgah Cemetery reads thus:  "Louisa Cox 
Bane, no dates, unmarked, wife of William T. Bane, daughter of Daniel V. Cox."  This is incorrect, as her headstone has 
been found at the Cox Cemetery at Slab Creek. p. 504.

Event Notes
Note (1) Minnie Kendall Lowther's "Ritchie County in History and Romance," p. 298, and
"Ritchie County Cemeteries through 1993," p. 596, incorrectly report unmarked
graves for Thomas William Bayne and wife Maria Louisa Cox at Mt. Pisgah
Cemetery, near Pullman (Co Rds 9 & 7/4), in Ritchie County.  "Ritchie County
Cemeteries," p. 504, also reports burial and headstone for Thomas W. Bayne at
the Cox Cemetery at Slab Creek, but nothing there for his wife.  Discovery of
headstones for them have confirmed that they are both buried at the Cox Cemetery
at Slab Creek.
