This headstone is located in the Barclay family plot. I was not able to find out too much about John Nelson Wisner, Jr. He was born in West Virginia, son of John Nelson and Hattie Mary Pratt Wisner. His father was a noted silversmith. His mother was the daughter of a pioneering steamboatman in Oregon William Ebenezer Pratt and she was the granddaughter of early arctic explorer and pioneering physician in Oregon territory Forbes Barclay (he came to Oregon in 1840 as a physician for the Hudson Bay Company).
