Note: Believe this is another instance of Evergreen and Old Fairfield City Cemetery being confused for one another. Although there are BECK burials in both, this Charles BECK's parents are buried in Old Fairfield City Cemetery (without gravestones); we do not have a record of this Charles being buried in Evergreen Cemetery.
