About Priscilla Whitaker

Wife of Jesse Keel. Jesse and Priscilla Keel settled on Keel Mountain prior to 1810. Jesse Keel is buried in Keel Cemetery on the mountain above Paint Rock, but when Priscilla died a number of years later, while living in Paint Rock, the mountain was too icy to carry her body up to be buried beside him. She was instead buried in Gilmore Springs Cemetery. (Birth and death date are approximate. She died between 1860 and 1870.)
