William Franklin Slatton was born on 25 Apr probably 1863 (gravestone says 1861). He died on 12 Oct 1907. He married Virginia Carter. They have known descendants in Versailles, Woodford County. He and his wife are buried in a family graveyard surveyed in the previous article [1]
and on the www.findagrave.com website as "Carter Family Cemetery." It should be noted that the Slatton family calls it "Slatton Cemetery," and the Thompson family calls it "Thompson Cemetery." It is on private property, adequately fenced, and frequently guarded by a bull. [2]
