This is where the other grave site is located, it is like finding a treasure map and following it to find the gold. I did find another site and it spoke of the first monument and I did see a photo of it but that is not enough for me. I need to find it and photograph the monument myself. My next stop will be the first monument and when I find it I will post it. This monument reads; In remembrance of the Pioneer days of this area and to the memory of the victims of the Wood River Massacre who were killed by Indians near this site on July 10, 1814. Rachel Reagan, Elizabeth 7, Timothy 3, wife and children of Reason Reagan. John 10, George 3, sons of WM. Moore. William 8, Joel 11 sons of Capt. Abel Moore. This is the top of the monument the bottom reads; The victims are buried in Vaughn Cemetery on highway 111 south of the airport. Capt. Abel and Mary Moore are buried 100 yards north of the site. This Monument dedicated July 10 , 1980. Erected by Bushrod's Raiders.

To the right is the grave site that I said I would fined, it is on the edge of a soccer field. The Moore's have a new grave marker but their old one is still there. It is so weird how you can live in a area all your life and not know the history. We have drove by this place hundreds of times and never new this was here. I seen the big marker and new it was a memorial for those that died in the Wood River massacre but did not know of the grave near by. One of the other sites posted that the Moores were side by side where there pioneer cabin was built.

I wonder why they buried them in Vaughn Cemetery. That would of been a full day travel for them maybe more. I guess this is one of life's little mysteries that if we dig enough we will find the answers to our questions. That trip would not have been easy because of the landscape. There would of been the woods , creeks, and many more obstacles in their way. I am old enough that I remember a big old farm house that sit across the highway that might have belonged to the Moores. Before they tore it down they made a Hunted House out of it for Halloween many years ago. The land now is known as Gordon Moore Park. http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmadiso/madpion.htm
