Please visit Tinker's Hill Cemetery in Gardiner MT, Park Co!! I went
this summer to see two of my anscestors grave sites. I was directed
to this info by Jon Swenumson, Livingston (Park Co.) Librarian in MT.
He found one of the graves listed in the book 'Death
in Yellowstone' by Lee H. Whittlesey. The cemetery is actually located
inside Yellowstone Nat'l Park, about a mile north of Gardiner, in Montana's
Paradise Valley.
My 4x Great Grandfather is buried there. His tombstone reads: "Alexander
Deckard 1836-1895". The other is for my 3x Great Uncle, Alexander's
son, Frank Deckard. His stone reads: "Frank Deckard 6 Dec 1874--Oct
1930".
Whittlesey's book is great! He has quite a few references to different
people buried in Tinker's Hill. Mr. Whittlesey says that there is a
sales list for Tinker's Hill that he used to get the information, but
it is not included in the book. Mammoth Civilian Cemetery in Yellowstone
Park, and Fort Yellowstone Army Cemetery are covered in even greater
detail. Some of these Cemeteries have maps and lists of graves. I just
wanted to get this out so anyone else searching for any Deckard's would
have another clue. And anyone who has had family in the greater Yellowstone
Park area from 1850 to 1950, this is a terrific resource!
