In answer to your question, Carol, I don't see Charles' wife, Mary Weaver LeBARON listed buried with her husband. In addition to Charles L. LeBaron, d. 1823, that I wrote you about, buried in the plot with him is: Leonard Le Baron, 22 Dec 1855 - 10 Jan 1943. Also in answer to your question, there is a C. L. LeBARON, Jr., died 8 May 1888, aged 66 years [pg 78, in another plot elsewhere in the cemetery]. Buried with him are several other LeBARONs, but alongisde him is Margaretta HOLMES, wife of Charles LeBARON, Jr. born Mobile, AL 30 Sep 1846 -- 23 May 1873, Pensacola, FL. Again, I don't see a listing for Mary Weaver LeBARON, his wife, in case anyone on the board here may know where she is! Can't answer you about restoration of the other stones there, tho I wouldnt be surprised if individuals (descendants) do that---I know of some who actually take a "current" interest in their ancestors' headstones, so it DOES happen. Write me "off the board" if you want me to list other LeBARONs--- there are about a dozen. (Anyone interested in cemeteries as I am, read today's News-Journal, page 1-C, about St. Michael's long-term plan to be professionally managed and cleaned! Hooray! 'Bout time, I guess.) Thanks, Carol, for you questions. Evan -----Original Message----- From: Evan R.
