Reported account from HauntTracker: In 1907 there was a women and her husband living in a house in the country. They had seven children. Her husband was a farmer. She was a stay at home mom with her kids. One day her husband came down with a very bad cold. A few weeks after getting the cold, He died of unknown reasons. She however could not take care of her seven children alone with no income.
So one day she took her kids lined them up in a line in the front yard. And she decapitated each one. When she realized what she had done she set her house on fire and shot herself in the head. So at night if you go and sit on the curve where the house used to be at the time she killed herself at 10:27 pm you can see a women in all white sitting on this post out in front of what used to be her house.
