Baby Boxley

There is no visible stone for this memorial, but it recognizes the grave of the infant child of Beach Boxley and his wife Millie Saulsberry. Information about this burial comes from the Alsip family of Chandler, Oklahoma. {Zelda Saulsberry Alsip was the sister of Millie.} The dates are informed guesses. All that is known for certain is that Millie Saulsberry married Beach Boxley in Lincoln Co. Oklahoma in 1927, and in 1930 they were living in Ardmore Oklahoma.

About 1930, Millie and Beach had a son named John Boxley. After his parents' divorce, he lived with his Saulsberry relatives: first Robert and Hazel Saulsberry of Lincoln County Oklahoma and then Thomas and Garnet Granell in Casper, Wyoming. John, now retired from the military, reports that Millie and Beach had six boys and one girl and that all of his siblings died before they were two years old. John thinks that the child buried here may be a girl.
