Amid the quiet hills of northern Illinois, a man discovers a forgotten gravestone: "Walter Wilcoxon, native of Maryland, died May 31, 1836." That chance discovery in the Cedarville Cemetery, becomes the beginning of a journey across time. With the patience of a researcher and the soul of a storyteller, Martin F. Ortiz reconstructs the life of an unknown pioneer -born during the American Revolution and buried beneath the shade of a century-old pine. In giving voice to a man erased by history, the author also contemplates his own path, migrations, and the meaning of belonging.
