Army National Military Cemeteries (ANMC) is honoring the requests of six families to disinter the human remains of six Native American students from the Carlisle Barracks Post Cemetery, Carlisle, Pennsylvania. The decedent names are Ophelia Powless (aka Ophelia Powias), Sophia Caulon (aka Sophy Coulon), Jamima Metoxen (aka Jemima Meloxen), Henry Jones, Alice Springer, and Adam McCarty (aka Adam McCarthy). These students died in the 1880s and 1890s while attending the Carlisle Indian Industrial School.
