      Nancy Parker is not found in the list of those known to be buried at what is now called the Austin State Hospital Caemetery. Eight Parkers are listed but no Nancy. All pages were scanned for patients admitted from Milam County; no names similalar to Nancy Parker were found. All death dates were scanned looking for 1902 death dates. Only 9-11 dates prior to 1903 are included. The archivist at the Austin History Center stated he understood the records of burials was very incomplete. The binder containing the cemetery listing includes copies of an article from the 6 May 2001 Austin American Statesman detailing the problems encountered by Merrill Davis in trying to locate records of the burials and compile the list
