Harry Lyman Stoddard was born in Vermont in 1869, the first child of Lyman and Rhoda (Douglas) Stoddard). By about the time he was 13 years old (early 1880s), his father and mother decided to leave Vermont and pursue the mines of the west. By 1883, they are in the Boulder, Colorado area--and mining seems to possess this family. Sometime between 1888 and 1895, Harry Lyman joins his father and possibly some other brothers and heads to Arizona (possibly Bisbee), and they also mine there.
Harry and his family do a short stint in Elko, Nevada around 1910 (he is listed as a Stage Driver)--where his wife Lulu was born, but they are back in Arizona by the time the 1920s roll around and they never leave again, presumably. Harry and Lulu have five children who make it to adulthood -- Stanley, Emory, Wesley, Shirley and Della. A few of them are also in this graveyard.
Harry served in the Spanish American War, also. He was part of the First Nevada Volunteer Infantry Battalion out of Elko, Nevada. http://www.spanamwar.com/1stnevadainfroster.htm
