Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/oV.2ADE/1233 Message Board Post: I would like to klnow who and how I would contact the person who listed the cemetery of Garden Point? I have a correction and additions for them. they have listed Art Burfield, this is James Arthur Burfield (he went by Arthur) his stone is a handmade stone and the etching has worn, there are no dates and never have been to my recollection. These are his dates if anyone is interested: James Arthur Burfield b. 12-22-1885 Phil Campbell Franklin Co. AL. d. ? Osceola, MS. Co. ARK. his wife listed also was Eattie Mae Woodward Burfield b. 12-1-1890 d. 12-1983 Osceola, MS. Co. ARK. also buried there but the homemade slab has disappearred is James Arthur Burfields mother. She is buired only paces away from her son and dau. in law. She is Roney Ann Gist Burfield born 3-1863 in AL. probably (Franklin Co.) and died 3-7-1956 in dyess, MS. Co.ARK. her husband - not buried there as far as I know is John Franklin Burfield b. 1856 GA. died in Red Bay AL. Hope this helps someone. These slabs ! were just etched by hand. Grandma Roney's was done sometime after her deat, had become embedded in the ground, when I pulled it out, we placed it over the indent in the ground - but when I returned several months later it was missing - a check with the Mayor and then the caretaker led nowhere.
