I've done just a little reserch on the Motes family and that is where I learned about the Motes Cemetery. I understand it was near the Motes old home place very near to Goshen which is south a few miles south of Hwy 10 /29 which goes through Luverne and Troy. I don't believe there was a church there. If I was planning to go to the cemetery I would ask for directions at one of the businesses located in Goshen. Louis J. Corley owns the property now, you might call him. I found two Louis J. Corleys in the phome book. The first one would probably be the right one. Their numbers are: Louis J, Corley______202 Flavia Cir___334-566-4530 Louis J. Corley Jr____613 Wilson Dr___334-566-5521 Any Motes out there that might be able to help Annette? Lots of luck, Wynnette
