Hi, Kirby ~ I have transcribed some of the graves in the Central Avenue District at Rose Hill, and your requests happen to be among them. Here's what I have: Rebecca J. Barrow Wife of Peyton W. Jones Mch 8, 1852 Dec 7, 1925 Peyton Wade Jones Mch 20, 1841 Oct 4, 1907 All the names I have transcriptions for can be found at - http://gagen.i-found-it.net/rosehill.html .

I found through someone's web posting generosity, that my anc Rebecca J BARROW JONES is buried at Rose Hill in the Central Ave District section with her husb Peyton W JONES. so far I haven't found -- are there online resources for me to find the inscription info? I'd like to know her birth/death info, and his birth info, if they are so inscribed. Peyton JONES was the first city inspector of Macon as well as CSA; perhaps there's something to that effect? [probably not] thanks. kirby in NC kirbz@northstate.net
