4683 LKH note:
There are two children buried in the Cline/Milner Cemetery that have a high probability of being two children of Mary and John Bonnett.

Currently they are labeled with the surname of Bonned, but the photo of the headstone could be read as Bonnett instead.

However, their dates of death and ages at death are too close together and therefore problematic for being the children of the same parents.

4694 LKH note: Ethel Grimes Turner's death certificate names her father, Samuel Grimes, but the mother's name is written as unknown. Her birthdate in 1884 and her entry in the 1900 US census in Samuel Grimes household would indicate that her mother was May (Cline) Grimes. Grimes, Ethel (I2885)
