Email from Nancy Lea Felker Riley 5/20/2005: "I haven't been to CrownHill Cem. but I have a lot of correspondence from them. There are alot of my MILES ancestors buried there, along with PETERSONs andothers. One thing I found out when I sent for Jefferson's burial info,Susan Buckner replied saying she couldn't find the burial stone forhim, then she found out that he actually died in April 1896 and wasburied in a single grave, and then in Dec of 1896 he was moved toanother site, where he's buried with one of Jessie and Glen's infantson's, and Wm. H. HAMMONS, who was Molly's second husband afterJefferson died. The burial/death date on the Crown Hill site ismisleading since he actually died in April. I had a hard time figuringthis out until I sent for the burial information [interment] and Susanwrote back with what she found."

From Nancy Riley: I have a death notice for Jefferson.....from theIndianapolis News, dated April 25,1896. As for his exact death date Ibelieve it's April 25th, according to what Sue Buckner wrote on theinterment request...Under Funeral notices:
PETERSEN--I.O.O.F.-The members of Philoxenian Lodge, No.44, arerequested to meet at Grand Lodge hall, Monday, April 27th, at 1o'clock p.m., to attend the funeral of Brother Jefferson M. Petersen,of 425 N.Pine St. ..R.H. HOLLYWOOD, N.G., W.F. LANDIS, RecordingSecretary.
From the Wikipedia: Apart from his redoubtable powers as acontroversialist, Philoxenus deserves commemoration as a scholar, anelegant writer, and an exponent of practical Christianity. Of thechief monument of his scholarship - the Philoxenian version of theBible - only the Gospels and certain portions of Isaiah are known tosurvive (see Wright, Syr. Lit. 14). It was an attempt to provide amore accurate rendering of the Septuagint than had hitherto existed inSyriac, and obtained recognition among the Non-Chalcedonians untilsuperseded by the still more literal renderings of the Old Testamentby Paul of Telia and of the New Testament by Thomas of Harkel (both in616-617), of which the latter at least was based on the work ofPhiloxenus.
There are also extant portions of commentaries on the Gospels from hispen. Of the excellence of his style and of his practical religiouszeal we are able to judge from the thirteen homilies on the Christianlife and character which have been edited and translated by EA WallisBudge (London, 1894). In these he holds aloof for the most part fromtheological controversy, and treats in an admirable tone and spiritthe themes of faith, simplicity, the fear of God, poverty, greed,abstinence and unchastity.
The term Oriental Orthodoxy refers to the churches of EasternChristian traditions that keep the faith of only the first threeecumenical councils of the undivided Church - the First Council ofNicaea, the First Council of Constantinople and the Council of Ephesus- and rejected the dogmatic definitions of the Council of Chalcedon.Hence, these Churches are also called Old Oriental Churches.
Philoxenus (Syriac, Aksenaya) of Mabbog (died 523), was one of thebest of Syriac prose writers, and a vehement champion of theNon-Chalcedonian doctrine in the end of the 5th and beginning of the6th centuries.Council of Chalcedon, which held that Jesus has twonatures ? one divine and one human, although these were inseparableand only act as one hypostasis. Philoxenus was banished toPhilippopolis in Thrace, and afterwards to Gangra in Paphlagonia,where he met his death by foul play in 523.
