We had a difficult time finding it, not because of it's location, but because there was no sign. The name of the church has changed and there was nothing to indicate where we were. We also visited a cemetery down the road from this one without a name. Finally, however, we found the grave. It had a small stone set in the ground and I probably would not have found it except for the internet list I had. This list was invaluable in that it listed the graves on each side and they had larger stones. After arriving back in Florida, I called LOLLEY MEMORIAL, down the street from the cemetery and ordered a new, above ground, small headstone, that gave more family information on it. This company was very nice to deal with and gave great customer service. Yesterday, I received in the mail, a picture of the new tombstone as it is now placed on the grave. That old stone had been there for 90 years! but I was afraid it would disappear into the ground with dirt and grass covering it. We really enjoyed our visit to Covington County and hope to return again. Susan Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
