Info about the grave from
this website:
"The grave of Pat King. This grave site is along an old mine road. Pat King died in this very spot in 1892 (he was 18 or 19 years old). He was hauling supplies to the mines by wagon, when a wheel broke. When he jacked up the wagon, and crawled underneath, the jack fell and he was killed. He was buried on this very spot. However, the current grave markings are a bit newer. A homemade metal plate indicates that the grave site you see here was built in July, 1959."
The headstone says:
"Pat King

Sep. 23, 1892
