QuickQuickSlow Posted December 4, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 4, 2019 On February 10, 1880, young Carrie "Frankie" Frances Kiene was born. Sadly a little after her 5th birthday on Feb. 24, 1885, young carried passed away. She was originally buried in Valencia, Kansas on Feb. 27, 1885. In 1920 Carrie's grandparents transferred her body over to the Mount Hope Cemetary in Topeka, Kansas. For the gravestone, they commissioned a statue in her likeness. Since the 1990's someone has been dressing the statue. It's unknown who comes and dresses the statue with scarves flowers and hats. No one knows who the mysterious dresser is, but if someone does no one's saying. Carrie's statue gets a new wardrobe 3 to 4 times a year (from reddit user CountEveryMoment) https://www.atlasobscura.com/places/grave-of-carrie-frances-kiene 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
