Historic Cenotaph
From Burgess, 6¾ miles south on Austin (becomes Dd) to St. John the Baptist Cemetery. A cenotaph (an empty tomb or a monument erected in honor of an individual or a group whose remains are elsewhere) has been placed here for local man John O’Brien who died at the 1876 Battle of the Little Bighorn in Montana along with General George Custer and members of the Seventh U.S. Cavalry. O’Brien and the other cavalrymen are buried in Montana.
