JASON HARMON: The short, tragic life of Anna Roe McElroy Here is the story of native born Adair Countian, Anna Roe McElroy. I wish I had a picture of her, but I have not been able to locate one.-Jason By Jason Harmon Rest Haven Cemetery in Edinburgh, Indiana, is filled with Burton tombstones that could almost rival the number at Bearwallow Cemetery in Adair County. All of the Burton men and women in Edinburgh that reside here have deep roots from Burton Ridge and it is no secret to anyone. I often stroll through both cemeteries and return to the library to search for obituaries of names that I am not familiar with. I especially find intrigue in people that died while still full of life. Those folks that were cut down in their prime, those that should have had many ripe years to enjoy. I found an interesting story in such fashion one afternoon when I saw the grave of Anna Roe Smitha. The interest was further peaked when I discovered that young Mrs. Smitha was a McElroy with Burton ties to the old ridge.
