Jimmie, We saw lots of people at the Decoration at Mt. Carmel, probably would have seen more but we left about lunch time to get something to eat on the way to Belmont City Cemetery where Odell and Anita are buried. How did your weekend go? We went to the hospital to see Aunt Eva on our way back. She was much better, but I heard that yesterday, she wasn't as well. Mother fell and tore ligaments in her rotator cup. The doctor doesn't want to do surgery if he can stop the pain, he is thinking of her age, she will be 88 years old in July. Would you send me the listings of Old Manscill Cemetery? Yes, there is only one grave with a name, Martha J. Manscill. Joel Palmer doesn't believe that Morning Dove is buried there. If you remember going to the Palmer Cemetery, there is one grave near Russell Porter and Morning Dizenie that has the same rock covering as theirs. Joel says he believes that is Morning Dove's grave. Who would go to that much trouble with covering a grave, if they were not family? Can you get the listings of people buried in Mt. Carmel? I am having no luck in finding a list. With the help of Joel, we found my great grandparents John and Mary Palmer's grave this week. They are buried in Pleasant Ridge Cemetery, and was hard to find because they have a single tomb with one of their names on one side and the other name on the other side. A beautiful tombstone, tall with etchings and extra writings. I'm guessing the tombstone is between the graves, they died about a month apart. Mary has a foot marker that looks as if it has never been in the ground. Wish you were here to enjoy my journey with me. Can you find me the names of William and Morning Dove's children? I found that they were married in Cherokee Nation, Tennessee. Does that town still exist? Love, Olva ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.
