Elizabeth O'Quin Gravesite

Elizabeath O'Quin is buried on the Donna Sue Jackson property, on Rt. 615, very close to the Rt. 712 intersection, under a big tree, and in what appears to be a rock pile. Gravesite is not fenced, and is located alongside a chicken lot. According to family legend, Elizabeth was killed along with 2 soldiers, by Indians, as she and her family were traveling through Russell County. The soldiers are to have been buried with her, but I couldn't see anything that suggested that they had been. This grave site needs cleaning.
