Triplett Family Cemetery
Knox County, Missouri, USA
"William Breckenridge Triplett came to Knox County from Hardin County, KY in 1856. He homesteaded land in Jeddo Township, adding a parcel of land in Myrtle Township later, both of which were southeast of Knox City. He received the patent deed for the land from the government. The farm was in the Triplett family for over one hundred years. It was sold to Albert and Allie Rhodes in 1968. A family cemetery on the farm holds the remains of all the Triplett's and local relatives up to the time of my father, who moved to Kansas City MO in 1936." By a Triplett Family Member
There are two little Negro babies buried here, but no one knows their names. The family worked for a neighbor and lived very close by, they knew of the little cemetery and asked permission to bury their children there, of course permission was granted. There are no markers for them.
