While trying to gain a better vantage point for a photograph along US 40, about 9 miles east of Terre Haute, and just east of Seelyville, I discovered something quite unexpected. Atop a hill on the North side of US 40 was a small grave plot of about 5 graves in a cluster. This is directly across the road from Valley Apartments (9999 E US HIGHWAY 40). I took photos of the following markers: Caroline Patterson died 2 Jul 1839 aged 37 years Thomas J Patterson died 1 Sep 1832 aged 32 years Elizabeth Patterson died 8 Mar 1832 aged 32 years There were 2 additional markers. One was as large as those pictured here, was broken near the base, and was unreadable. The other was quite small, about 8 inches tall and also unreadable.
