Findagrave notes that this particular Yankie hailed from Yazoo City, MS. The family name is at the bottom of the trunk, and as of this posting, there are snails making their home near the Woodmen of the World emblem if you carefully peel back the bush that is encroaching upon the monument. The inscription reads:

J.W.
Yankie

Mar. 29, 1850
Feb. 17, 1915
Was the inscription legible?: Yes
