| StoppingPoints.com Editorial on Site of Zodiac: | The town was since renamed Rocky Hill after a local school by the same name in 1885. The former Mormon cemetery here which contains the remains of Lyman Wight is located on private property and has apparently been plowed over and the markers obliterated.
Marker Location: Take US 90 E from Fredericksburg approx. 4 miles to Schmidtzinsky Rd.; then east approx. 1.4 miles (on private property). |
