Jesse is most likely buried in Byer Cemetery with his wife, Rebecca Davis Maddox. She died the year before in 1873. No stone has been found for Jesse but is makes sense he was buried with his first wife who died just the year before. In the pension documents of Ai Maddox, their son who was killed at the battle of Gettysburg, Ai was was the sole support of his parent as his father had cancer of the breast and disease of the spine and could not work. It is very likely there was no money for a stone for Jesse.
Jesse married Anna Burr Mercer just after his wife's death. Because he was an invalid it was most likely a marriage of convience.
