    3. FUNNY! ! I am sure that someone will point out that the information is still available, and that is what is important. But it is still funny. Got this off another list. ______________ I have been researching my family for some time now and found out where my 4x-great-grandparents were buried in a county not too far from us. I called the church where the cemetery was located and asked the minister about the old cemetery. He really didn't know anything about it and referred me on to the church historian. When I finally got a hold of her I asked her about the cemetery's location and my grandparent's graves. She told me that yes their stones were still there but that she didn't know if I would want to bother coming down or not as all the tombstones had been laid flat on the ground at sometime in the past and weren't necessarily over the original graves anymore because.......... They had been put in ALPHABETICAL order! This is a true story - at Bottskill Baptist in Greenwich, NY.
