    1. [GAJONES] Fw: Fellowship Cemetery
    2. HD Norman
    3. Dear Researchers: If any of you have ancestors that went to East Alabama, some of them may be buried in this cemetery. Those of you who are related to the FEAGIN's, PRUETT's, or WILLIAMSON's, go to this website to see if they are buried there. Many graves showing births in the 1780's. This cemetery is in danger of being no more. If any of you have relatives in Bullock county, please let them know about this horrible situation. The website for the Fellowship Cemetery in Midway, Bullock Co., AL is http://www.intersurf.com/~johnjanr/bcemfell.htm E-mail me privately if you think you can help. Thanks.
