On another sheet with the above tombstone notes was a bit on the Hartzells, in William's hand, but date of writing is unknown. The back of the sheet was written by someone else after 1948 because William died in 1944.

                    James A. Hartsell)

On back of the sheet was:

James A. Hartsell married Mary Elizabeth Palmer in Indiana in 1858, 
two years later moved to Illinois.  Settled in Richland township and 
rented ground until 1872.  Wife died in 1863 or 66.
Married Sophronia Jane Walker on Dec. 23, 1868.  Mr. Hartsell was 
known as an agriculturist and very prosperous, accumulating 300 
acres (JDH note: this sounds like it came from the biographical 
sketch).  He started buying land in 1872.  He built the big house 
in 1896 which burnt in 1948.  He didn't marry until age 21.  His 
mother's maiden name was Nippe.  Sophronia's mother's maiden name
