Diana, you are welcome! I found the following in another group of my papers: >From DAR microfilm that I recorded in 2000: Middleground Church Cemetery: "Sacred to the Memory of D. T. Colson", b. 10 March 1809, d. 15 Nov 1878 Also, Mayah Henderson Newton b. 4 January 1885 d. 27 May 1938. Does anyone know who were Mayah's parents? Tommy, do you have Mayah in your database of Newtons? Could she have possibly been a daughter to Eugene Henderson, son of Wm. M. Henderson and Cynthia Ann Gray Brown Henderson?
