South Park Cemetery Tombstones
Five miles southwest of Jackson,
Teton County, Wyoming
Transcribed by Carol Burdick Warren
20 Sep 1991
Plaque in cemetery: This, the first cemetery in Jackson's
Hole, was begun in 1891 during the diphtheria epidemic with the deaths
of Sarah and Joseph Wilson. It is hereby dedicated in its centennial
in honor of their parents: Sylvester Wilson 1840 - 1895 and Mary Wood
Wilson 1844 - 1913.
Sylvester lead the first families to settle in Jackson's
Hole over Teton Pass in November 1889, in the first assembled wagons to
come into the valley. He was a faithful member of the Mormon Church
and organized its first branch here in 1893. The first school was
held in his home in 1892 and he was instrumental in getting the first
county school district in the valley. He brought the first hand-operated
saw mill and riding plow into Jackson's Hole. He was a musician and played
the fiddle at community affairs. He was a leader of men. Mary
was a midwife and administered to the sick. They had 12 children
and strove for the best education for pioneer families. They were
hardy, public-spirited pioneers, prominent ranchers and stalwart pillars
of Jackson's Hole, contributing to its progress, its productivity and
its culture.
