    3. Hi all.. I got the Hensley-Dowell Cemetery page #3 up and running earlier, and sometime after I get in from work tonight (after 8pm EDT) I'll have cemetery page #4 up. There's a little confusion on my part concerning the Hensley-Dowell cemetery, and I need to contact Karen Schafer at the Archives to clear it up, but I took pictures of everything in the cemetery... even stuff that "moved". That included 35 short concrete pillars/concrete tiles. At the Bennett Cemetery, we have things we do that we mark off a section that a particular group of family members wants to reserve, and my thoughts are that the pillars/tiles are the same situation at Hensley-Dowell. Yet, there are a few pillars/tiles that have flowers or things around them to indicate that there is someone buried there... but there is no inscription or identifying marks. So know in the back of your mind, when viewing the 4 cemetery pages, that there are a possibility of upwards of 35 unknown marked graves. Also, I want to say a BIG thanks to Jen Ritchie. She's begun sending me pictures to key in and upload to the Archives site. These pictures are tombstones from the Noblett Cemetery, McDaniels UMC Cemetery, Cave Springs Cemetery, and she's sending what she's taken at Garfield so that if her's are better visually to see... we can use those instead of what I took. We've had a lot contribute to the Archives here the past several months, and all of us that benefit from it on the Archives site want to say a hearty "thank you". As a result, I know personally of one person that's found family as a result of it. Thanks again guys!! I'll send another posting this evening to let you all know when the remainder of Hensley-Dowell goes online, and when Noblett Cemetery will be listed. And.. I'm still working out the file indexing mistake I made concerning the Garfield and Mt. Zion Roll/Minute books. Hopefully here in a couple of days it'll be finally straightened out. Happy Hunting!
