I am looking for a cemetery close to Floral that was once named "Hand Shanty". I don't know if that is the correct pronunciation but I was told that the name was changed and they didn't know the new name.

Sept 1882, Maude Aug 1885, Artelia Sep 1888 and Lizzie G. Feb 1891.The 1910 shows only Rilla and Arthur B.  Was she previously married to Martin Williams (Marriage records C580)?  Any information will be appreciated.
