Location

The Hupp Family Cemetery is in Beaver Meadows in Rocky Mountain National Park.  It
is about 300 feet north of Upper Beaver Meadows Road from a point about 0.2 of a
mile from the beginning of the intersection of Upper Beaver Meadows Road (a dirt road)
and the paved road leading to the Beaver Meadows Entrance Station.  GPS
coordinates are 40 degrees 22 minutes 19 seconds north, and 105 degrees 35 minutes
41 seconds west.  

Description of Cemetery

The cemetery is marked by a single red granite headstone with the following inscription:

                                
                          HUPP FAMILY
                           John Hupp
                 Sept. 24, 1820   Dec. 29, 1877
                                
                         Eliza E. Hupp
                 Oct. 2, 1830   Sept. 17, 1900
                                
                        Francis A. Hupp
                 Sept. 24, 1853   Jan. 11, 1901
                                
The headstone faces east, so it is perpendicular to Upper Beaver Meadows Road.  In
addition, as of February 2001, there is a small pine tree between the headstone and the
road.  Consequently, the headstone cannot be seen from the road.  You may need the
GPS reading to find it.

Note that although the headstone at the Hupp Family Cemetery spells Fannie's name
as "Francis," all of the other references to her spell her name as "Frances."

The south-most burial is actually outside of the four metal stakes that mark the
cemetery site: It is under the small pine tree that is south of the area marked by the
stakes.
