Killed By a Yankee In Her Vegetable Patch

The marker for Jane Lonas and the Lonas house now appears to be gone. The bank as well as the brick sidewalk that encased the marker have been removed as new construction is about to start. I have no info. if the marker will be placed again when the new building is built, or if it will go someplace else.
