John Keener (1872-1966) and Martha Azle (1918-1992) McCall – Cemetery Photo
John Keener McCall was my 2nd Great Grandfather. He is buried in the Lone Oak Cemetery in Stayton, Marion County, Oregon. I have visited there and have seen his grave. The Lone Oak Cemetery is on a nice hill on the edge of Stayton in a mostly residential neighborhood overlooking the valley. It is a very wet area with lots of rain, where nearby many of the Christmas tree farms have been torn down to build new housing developments. With all the rain, it’s no wonder there’s moss growing in the attached picture. He is buried with his second wife Martha Azle (Mercer).
The following picture was taken from Findagrave.com, as the picture I took the day I was there isn’t quite as clear as this one.
