    "I came across the grave of one of the folks on your site. R.T. Matson and his wife, Sarah. The grave is at the Mt. Zion Cemetery in Burton in Washington County, TX. The stone says he was killed at the Battle of Pine Bluff, AK in 1863. This place is not in the best of shape and Sarah’s stone is resting against her husband’s I thought that was pretty endearing and took a shot." Tod Peddie
