Text: Light tombstone, Mt Carmel Cemetery, Edgar Co IL, visited and photographed by Art and Evelynne Alvis. Mt Carmel Cemetery, Brouillets Twp, Edgar Co IL, 6 pages copied 1959, indexed and retyped 1973, Light File. David and Harriet are on page 4, as well as their sons Samuel H, William W, their wives, the first wife of son Reuben S, many of their families and a son of Benjamin Franklin Light. Text: OP Light papers. In 1966, my grandmother obtained from her sister O. P. Light?s hand-written family records, which I copied and returned. These papers have since disappeared, probably thrown away by my great-aunt's daughters when she gave up housekeeping. These papers provided dates and several generations of the Light, Prather and Veach families. There was nothing on the Dickinsons but the name and dates of Harriet Dickinson. The Lights he listed are exactly as later research has proven his family to be.
