Newton & Lyda Bratcher Wilson's tombstone location is Rosehill Section E-54 (Rosehill Elmwood Cemetery). I have her death record as I see you do, but I have not been able to find one for Newton. I have 1870, 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930 census records for her. In 1880 Newton appears on two census records but is not married to her, so I think they married sometime soon after that.

Next to their grave was Rev Herman S & Hattie Lou Harris Wilson--I wasn't looking for that one, so I'm not sure of the section, but I suspect it is still E-54. My records show him as Newton & Lyda's youngest son. His birth is 9 Jun 1893 per WWI Draft Registration. Indiana Marriage Collection cites their marriage in Spencer, Indiana 22 Aug 1912. She died 14 Sep 1983 in Daviess County (Ky Death Index) and he died 15 Feb 1991 in Daviess County (Ky Death Index and SS Index). They were in Louisville in 1920 census and in Akron, Summit, Ohio in the 1930 census

William Martin Bratcher's tombstone location is Elmwood Section H-319 (Rosehill Elmwood Cemetery). His wife was Susan Emma Mercer (May 1862 - bef 1910). According to the 1900 census they married in 1884. I have Susan with parents John David Mercer & Susan Judy in 1870 & 1880 census records. We visited with my only living aunt while in Owensboro, and she said that after Susan died, William Martin spent time living with most all of his children. When he died, he was living with Ora, but he was living with my grandfather, Roy, in the 1920 census.

Here's a list of William Martin's children if you are interested:
Clyde Weldon Bratcher (15 Oct 1884 - 27 Feb 1965) - Married Lillian Genevie King - Died in Akron, Ohio
