Has anyone heard that there are grave sites paved over in Eastview Cemetery in Newton? My aunt believes that her grandmother was buried in Eastview sometime after 1930 and that her gravesite, being unmarked, was paved over? The woman in question was Martha Wood Cox who is presumed to have died at Broughton Hospital and then buried at Eastview. I'm having trouble with this for these reasons: 1. If a person died at Broughton why would they be buried in Eastview? Her son Caleb Hamilton Cox was living in Newton after the 1920's. 2. She was married to William Cox who lived in either Rowan or Cabarrus County. 3. Could a road be built over gravesites? Thanks for any suggestions. I know I stirred things up and started a great discussion of Martin Hollar the other day. Sincerely, Cynthia Bolick Gilbert
