I was there last Saturday for a tour and I think I saw the family monument; however I didn't take a close look. Ann in Atlanta Ann, Yes, The Lynch family has a plot at Oakland. I have not been there yet, but it will be on my list of things to do when I get back to Atlanta. The following is a letter that C.J. Lynch of Atlanta wrote to me. This was the first I knew of the Lynch family plot. Feb. 28, 2001 Dear Mimi, This whole thing started when my sister, Ms. Pat Lynch McClure, informed me that there was a problem with the wall around the family plot # 107 at Oakland Cemetery. The Lynch family owns one whole plot that has three sections, four of the five brothers and their families are buried there. Michael Lynch has his own plot. Michael had no children, his second wife died within a year of Michael. When I checked in 1982, there was only two contact names of family members on file at Oakland Ms. C. H. Wooten and my father Charles J. Lynch, Jr., now there are three contact names a John H. Lynch, Jr. My family has been paying to keep up the grounds since 1936 for plot 107. Now after over a hundred years John's section of the lot has the name John H. Lynch, Jr. as John's heir. The problem is John and Michael had no children, thus no direct heirs. We remaining Lynch's are all their heirs. Somehow I need to find a direct heir for K. H. Wootten or find what happen to her estate upon her death in order to get the Sexton at Oakland to allow me to get the wall repaired. Any suggestions as to how to replace K. H. Wootten's name with her heir would be most helpful. Best regards C. J. Lynch
