Would someone be willing to go to Wallace Cemetery in Mound Township (near Altamont) to take a pix of a tombstone of W. D. Jenkins and his son Johnnie. It is suspected that this W. D. Jenkins might be the son of Roddy Jenkins. Rod Jenkins is mentioned on page 67 of "History of Effingham County". The grave is detailed on page 115 of Effingham County Past and Present. Says "Wallace Cemetery is located on a knoll about 1/2 mile south of US Route 40 on the John L. Russell farm, overlooking Second Creek to the northeast. This is in section 12 of Mound township." I will pay for film, gas, whatever.......<grin> within reason. Linda (the listmom) Researching Jenkins for a friend.

Hey Linda, Matt Smallwood here, Elsie Deters' grandson. How are you? Hope you are well. Unfortunately, Grandma Elsie has had a rough couple of weeks...she a small stroke last week and is experiencing loss of circulation in her legs due to her diabetes. She appears to have bounced back okay though...she only said a few words to me on the phone the evening of the stroke but had a conversation with my sister a week later...so that's good. I'm going back to visit Elsie and Paul and my Dad's family in Jasper County from May 6- 14. I could definitely find time to take a trip to Altamont and take that photo while I'm there. You wouldn't have to pay me a thing. My aunt in Gila has a scanner and an internet connection so I could even send it to you as a jpeg file. Sound good? You won't hurt my feelings if you make an agreement with someone who lives there locally to do it either. Let me know before May 4. That's when I'm leaving Delaware on my vacation. Hope to hear from you soon, Matt Smallwood Linda Kralman-Lambert wrote: > Would someone be willing to go to Wallace Cemetery in Mound Township (near > Altamont) to take a pix of a tombstone of W. D.
