Hi Sharon,
I also was in contact with Margaret Younce Zdunic. Her first
letter to me dated 1987. She discussed much of the same as you
related discussing with her.

She sent me a hand drawn map of the location of the field
stones of Phillip and Margaret (Byrkitt) Younce in the Sugar
Grove Cemetery, Newton Township, Miami County. I do not know
if the plaque has been placed. I will drive down and see. It
is only three miles from my home.

On the map she indicated the marked stones of David and Elizabeth
Deeter. She said that standing with a foot against the stone of
said Elizabeth Deeter, Then moving at a 45 degree angle into the
next row back, there are the two field stones in question.

As you know this Phillip Younce was an Elder in the Dunker Church
here in Miami County Ohio.
