Weathrill

 
Gravesite of Richard Weatherill

Richard Weatherill was the discoverer of Mesa Verde, and the excavator of Pueblo Bonito. He later ran a trading post in Chaco Canyon, and his wish to be buried there was granted, after he was murdered. Every online reference I found to Richard Wetherill has his name spelled with an "i" leading me to think that it was misspelled on his headstone.
