## What we know

Single burial of Olinda Hook, who lived with her daughter and son-in-law, Charles and Anna Carpenter, near Sedalia; she was 72 in the 1880 census (county map, S-0123).

## Where it was

Pin on the Douglas County Historic Resource Map (DCHR-094; Douglas County and Douglas County Libraries, 2012, on the Larkspur Historical Society's Google map, S-0123). Where that map and ours place the same site, the pins mostly fall within about 300 feet. Good to a few hundred feet.

Placed from a written description, such as a land section, a distance from a landmark or an old survey note.
