[edit]I couldn't find the birth and death date of Wyatt. The Wyatt Rucker who appears on Ancestry.com (1830-1878) is the brothers' father. I left the parentheses in place because without them it looks like Bethel's years are meant to apply to both of them. If someone can fill in the years, I'd be much obliged. I'm pretty sure you can find them on the monument at Evergreen Cemetery. Some day I'll drive out to Everett and take a look, but that probably won't happen any time soon.
Another date I couldn't find is when the brothers sold the Big Four Inn. I had to finesse that paragraph in order to give an accurate date for the railway without giving an inaccurate one for the Inn. If someone can find the year for that, it could be rewritten more elegantly.
A picture of the mansion might be nice. There are several pictures on the Web, but I'm not sure of their copyright statuses. I suppose when I make my Everett trip I could take a picture myself. May as well get the Monument, too. I'm not much of a photographer, so if someone else wants to do the honors, have at it. Iglew (talk) 05:10, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
