No name that resembles in the Macon County Cemetery Book, and unless he was buried in the old cemetery In Macon, I can't think of anyplace he could be buried in this area. Macon was founded in 1823, in Bibb County. In the 1700's it was Indian Territory, and only the fort had white people. Jones County came into being in 1807, and Bibb came from it.
