James Parks
Died Nov. 17, 1873
Aged 31 Years
Could not find records other than an Ohio County death abstract for James. This grave is interesting in that Calvary Cemetery did not open and actively bury until 1887. So it is very likely that James was exhumed and reburied from either St. Patrick's Cemetery or from Sts. Peter & Paul Cemetery or another cemetery. Additionally, this photo was taken Memorial Day weekend 2016 and a flag was placed to indicate James was a veteran. Given his age at death, it is possible he was a Civil War Veteran.
