David W. Barnes Funeral Home is independently owned and operated by David and Carol Barnes of Coffeyville, Kansas. Our competitors, who are owned by corporations with headquarters in big cities, will oftentimes say they are family owned; however they don't mention that the family lives out of the area. This corporate environment leads to a lesser amount of revenue being reinvested in the community.
The graves of two of the Coffeyville Defender's, Charles Brown & George Cubine, are nearby. As is the grave of Frank Dalton (brother of the gang members), who was killed in 1887, in the line of duty as a U.S. Deputy Marshal. All of the graves face to the west. Elmwood Cemetery is easy to find.
