My friends - I am dropping by today to let the JP and Calloway list subscribers know that I have converted another item from the several hundred that I have stored on the old 5 inch floppies (which I call my "miscellaneous files"), and it is now ready for distribution. This one was particularly time consuming to convert. I had attempted it last week, but did not succeed. After about 6 hours of work on it yesterday and today, it finally began to cooperate. This file contains the known burials, up to the middle 1960's, in the South Pleasant Grove Cemetery in Calloway County. I've received a lot of requests for this particular cemetery, and I am glad to be able to now have it ready to offer. South Pleasant Grove is a large cemetery, with nearly 1000 burials contained within it. The earliest birth year that I found was in the 1760's, which is among the earliest legible birth dates that I have seen on a grave marker in Calloway County. Surnames seen in this cemetery include Wrather, Windsor, Wilson, Waldrop, West, White Wicker, Wilkerson, Brown, Buchannen, Camp, Clark, Charlton, Carter, Carraway, Arnold, Baker, Bazzell, Bridges, Brandon, Bonn, Bradley, Bogard, Wade, Vaughn, Smotherman, Spann, Underwood, Treas, Todd, Taylor, Swann, Story, Stone, Stephens, Spencer, Roy, Sanders, Shoults, Show, Shrader, Paschall(many), Phillips(many), Pigue, Robertson, Provine, Plummer, Neale, Nesbit, Parks, Page, Oswald, Orr, Moore(many), Morton, Most, Myers(many), Milstead, Miles, Miller(many), Mills, Kell(e)y, Jones, James, Jackson, Hill, Humphries/Humphreys, Hughes, Hooper, Holly, Hirst, Lannom, Lawrence, Lewis, Madrey, Melton, McPherson(many), McLeod, McClure, McClain, Kelso, Langston, Lamb, Key, Kendall, Herndon, Henley, Hawks, Harris, Hart, Harden, Hamlett, Hale, Gunter, Gupton, Guston, Gream, Erwin(many), Flood, Ford, Foutch, Freeman, Frizzell, Gargus, Glover, Gooch, Adams, Arnett, Armstrong, Alderson, Allison, Anderson, Ellis, Dunn, Douglas, Cunningham, Curd, Deering, Cullom, Craig, Craven, Cooper, Cochrum/Cochran and Clark. Subscribers to the JP and Calloway lists can obtain a copy of this file by sending a request directly to me. Please ask for the "South Pleasant Grove File". The file is available in both Plain Text and Adobe Acrobat PDF formats. The file will be sent as a plain text attachment to an e-mail message, unless PDF is specified. If attachments are not workable, the file can be sent in the body of an e-mail message, although there is the possibility that this form of transmission will badly skew the columnar alignments. If this approach is required, please specify that the file should be sent as a "straight e-mail message". The complete file will be sent. Time constraints prevent me from going into the file and extracting data on individual surnames. -B ====================================================================
