I am researching information on my great, great grandfather; Dr. E.B. Stone. I have a newspaper article that states he was to be buried next to his son Charlie Stone (stating in the obituary; “to be buried here”) ((Article is from Ilwaco newspaper, Tribune?) I have a note from Ilwaco Cemetery Association that a Dr. E.B.Stone paid @2.50, but I don’t know what that was for. That was on Jan 1, 1894. This was confirmed on the ledger, page 3. I assume that was for his sons; Charlie’s grave. I know the family lived in Ilwaco Washington for a time. My Great grandfather was Dr. H.K. Stone (dentist) (Son of EB STONE). I have his business card from Ilwaco Washington.

E.B. Stone: B. March 3, 1831 in Oldham Kentucky
D. June 12th 1895, Walla, Walla Washington, stated to have been buried in Ilwaco Washington
Medical Doctor
Admitted to Oregon State Bar : 1868
1st Lieutenant, 1st Oregon Vol. Company D, fought in Indian Wars; Umqua area
Journalist
Founder: Corvallis University: (Currently Oregon State University): Under Southern Methodist, around 1861
I have no information on Wife’s name

Son: Henry (Harry) Keene Stone:
B. Jan 10, 1866 in Walla Walla Wash
D. Oct. 5, 1904 in Walla Walla Washington
Had dental Surgeon Office on Lake Street, Ilwaco, Washington, as well as a practice in Walla, Walla

Does any one have any information on these two men?
