    3. Very good, Jacki, you were THINKING!! ;=) Good for you. That was certainly "turn of the century" and a little before! Jones HOYT, an early relative of the Whitmires, I believe, used to tell me that the north section, which we know TODAY as the Black section, was ". . .where the Ferry Pass residents interred their slaves"---which always made me think that this implied an "age" for the Whitmire. Actually, none of the graves goes back that far---DEATH DATES, that is, but I spent a lot of time in that cemetery, and saw nothing as old as the slave days. Let me know if you come up with an answer--I have replied, also. I can't stand it when there is a cem out there that I haven't heard of!! Usually, it's just given another name.
