Note: The Johnson County Indiana WPA Death Index, 1882–1920, page 187, referencing Book H-16, page 26, records that Jessie Sisco, a seven-year-old white white male, died 28 Aug 1891 [sic] in Franklin.

Note: The Greenlawn Cemetery office confirmed that Cora and Jessie are in the same plot as Moses, Alonzo, and Frances, but they have no markers, and apparently never have. The first reading of this cemetery done in 1932 by the DAR failed to show them, so they have never had stones.-Mark McCrady 21 Nov 2014
