GATWIGGS-L Archives From: Crilley <varcsix@hot.rr.com> Subject: [GATWIGGS] Old Stone Cemetery Date: Wed, 04 Dec 2002 10:34:25 -0600 Continuing to work on the Old Stone Cemetery.... I had not realized that the Powell buried here was the father of Hiram Powell.... most of you have heard of this Baptist preacher if you have done research in this section of Georgia! Now, we know there are others buried here.... if you know of any, please send the names to me. Even if there are no longer tombstones, we still want to try to reconstruct these names. I feel certain that many of those listed in the early membership of the church are probably buried here as well. But "family graveyards" were still used more in early days.
