Notes:

The following text is copied from "Douglas Park Cemetery -- A Walking Tour", courtesy of the Wyoming Pioneer Memorial Museum, the Douglas Historic Preservation Commission, and the National Park Service:

Born and raised in Ohio, Margaret AuFrance came to Wyoming in the late 1890's, on the arm of a man who would soon prove to be a professional paramour -- to herself, and to a subsequent parade of equally naive or complicit young women. After establishing "Maggie" as a professional madam in the new city of Douglas, the man disappeared, leaving her to fend for herself. Which she did, with uncommon success. Maggie took to recruiting and very efficiently managing a score of willing young women out to profit from the carnal appetites of the western frontier. City Hall turned a blind eye to the business--except for tax assessments, invariably levied at twice the going rate, augmented by fines generated in police raids conducted according to the city's financial necessity.

Maggie's husband, Benjamin E. Wheelock, whom she wed in 1913, was fluent in several American Indian languages and served as an interpreter for the state and federal governments.

Maggie followed her husband to the grave after a period of only seven weeks; the two are buried side-by-side, and share a common marker. (Benjamin's father, B.C. Wheelock, also resided in the area and is interred beside the couple.)
