John and Sarah were buried on the "family farm," according to descendant, Miss Eva May Peeler, not far from the Peeler farm. Their grave markers were later "trampled by cattle, and their graves plowed by farming."

The city that John and Sarah lived in was "Old" Franklin until floods in 1826 and 1828 wiped it out. The city of New Franklin was founded in 1828.
