Many thanks to all those who assisted us in locating, finding, providing, granting access and guiding us to Clark cemetery. It must have been an answered prayer that they found it for me, as it is miles up in the dense woods. In fact trees are growing all through it, and you could pass right through it without seeing it unless you stumbled over one of the 3 gravestones covered in leaves, or fell into the open grave that grave robbers left open. I don't know whose grave it was, as there is no longer a marker. Someone must have used a metal detector and located something down there. As poor as those farmers were, what would make robbers think they would find anything. Is there anything that can be done? chuck _________________________________________________________________ The i’m Talkathon starts 6/24/08.
