Quarnstrom about 1929. They had one son before Luella died of T.B. Charles was only 24 years old himself when he was killed. Their orphaned son was later adopted. **** Man Found Dead Near Crossing The dead body of Charles Heaps, Logansport coal miner was found near the Grove mine crossing of the C & NW railroad west of Boone early Monday by William Harvey, a miner employed at the Benson Coal Company mine. Evindently the young man had been struck by a train. Harvey flagged a westbound passenger train and notified the crew. Subsequently C & NW officials, Sheriff Pardie L. Moore and Coroner Harry Schroeder were notified. The latter ordered the body removed to a funeral home here where members of the accident victim's family later called and made identification. Heaps, who had been married and is survived by a young daughter (sic), was terribly disfigured by the fatal accident. His skull had been fractured, several teeth knocked loose, his chest crushed, both hands cut off at the wrists and his legs severed near the knees. Harvey found the remains about 6:45 o'clock Monday morning. According to W.P. Bard, district claim agent for the railroad, the body was to the south side of the western main track about 200 feet west of the Grove crossing. [from Ogden Reporter 19 Jan 1933]
