       MY GRANDFATHER (MOM'S DAD) TOOK HER (MARY ANN HARKLEROAD) AND HER BROTHER TO THE STATE OF WASHINGTON WHEN MY MOTHER WAS AN INFANT.  THAT FIRST WINTER IN WASHINGTON, MY GRANDMOTHER (MARGARET ELIZABETH HARKLEROAD) DIED - I DON'T KNOW THE CAUSE OF DEATH.  MY MOTHER TOLD ME THAT HER DAD (LANDON HARKELROAD) AND SOME MEN MADE HER COFFIN.  THEY LIVED WAY BACK IN THE MOUNTAINS.  THEY BROUGHT HER OUT ON A SLED.  SNOW WAS UP TO THEIR KNEES.  MY GRANDFATHER CARRIED MY MOTHER AND MY UNCLE SAT ON THE COFFIN.  THEY WALKED ALL DAY.  THEY BURIED MY GRANDMOTHER IN SPOKANE, WASHINGTON.
       MY MOTHER SAID THAT SOMEONE WROTE HER FROM WASHINGTON AND TOLD HER THAT MY GRANDMOTHER'S GRAVE WAS IN THE CENTER OF THE CEMETERY IN SPOKANE, WASHINGTON.
