=================================================

1920 Census for Jenkins, Lea County, NM lists household for:
William H. Veazey, 65, Head; Mary Ellen Veazey, 66, Wife; Henry H. Veazey, 26, Son.

William "Henry" Veazey and his son H. "Homer" Veazey died shortly after the 1920 Census and are buried in Jenkins Cemetery, Lea County, NM. There was a Diphtheria epidemic from 1921-1925, peaking in 1921, that may have been cause of deaths. In the year 2000 only 19 stones were documented in the cemetery (https://newmexicottp.genealogyvillage.com/Lea/jenkins.html). Veazey's listed in the cemetery are:

Veazey, H., Concrete Block

Veazey, Henry, 1854-1921, same stone with Homer

Veazey, Homer, 1895-1920, on same stone with Henry

Veazey, W.H., Concrete Block

The "Concrete Blocks" may be footstone markers for each of their graves, thereby making what appears to be 4 Veazey graves only 2 graves.
