I just wish that the article had mentioned that many thought Mrs. Keckly's burial site was lost to history until our forum member Rich Smyth located it and the Surratt Society and two co-sponsors raised the funds to mark it.

Laurie, I have thought about your comment, and I decided to email the NYT team responsible for the "Overlook Obit" column. I reiterated your remarks (gave the credit to you) and suggested that they contact the Surratt Society/House Museum. It would be nice, I feel, if Rich and the Surratt Society were recognized for the monumental contribution.

What a wonderful thing to do. Thank you so much.
