2. Per Rosemary Cundiff at the Research Center of the Utah State Archives : "Early boundaries for Washington, Kane, and Iron counties were fairly unstable during Utah's territorial period. Today Kanarraville is just north of the Washington County border in Iron county. Based on maps showing county boundary changes, it looks like Kanarra was in Washington County when first settled in 1862, and that it had become part of Kane County by 1870. The Kane/Washington/Iron boundary was altered again in 1885, and at that time Kanarra probably became part of Iron County. Although, Kanara is not on the historical maps I am using, it could possibly have been once more in Washington County for a while. The county boundaries as currently established were in place by 1896." Kerry's note: Kanarra's name was changed to Kanarraville when the city incorporated in 1934. The first white settlers came from Fort harmony when heavy rains washed out the fort in 1862. Several Toquerville families also relocated there, and the community was further fortified in the late 1860's by the arrival of Long Valley settlers fleeing Indian problems.

BURIAL:
1. Per Hales tombstone in Junction Old Cemetery [which is across the street from the New Hilltop Cemetery] apparently placed very recently [older white tombstone still exists] which reads:
Grandfather Charles Henry, Sept. 17, 1848 - Apr. 7, 1907.
Grandmother Jemima Ann Adair, Mar. 27, 1863 - Jan 2, 1919.
Children:
Ida May, Apr. 18, 1886 - June 30, 1895.
George Ammon, Aug. 24, 1879 - Oct. 31, 1897.
I also have on file a handwritten map of this cemetery where someone identified 42 names and their locations. On this list are the four individuals above and they are buried in the northeast corner. None of the other 38 names appear connected to my family history. The compiler of the information does state that the names of many others are long forgotten.
