Appears to have been buried next to: Reynolds, Lillian H., buried in Section A, Lot 17, grave #5, interred 27 Aug 1947, died 26 Aug 1947, age 86, married female. No gravemarker.

Ms. Minter, Noticed your last name, Minter, which interested me very much. My GGGGM was Elizabeth Croxton, who was the daughter of Benjamin and Mary Minter Croxton. Elizabeth married Jesse Meshew, and they ended up in the Jackson Purchase area, around 1830-1840. Have you traced the Minter name? If you have do you have it all the way back into VA? If not, Would you like some resources that I know would be glad to help you. Ron Meshew ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com

They are great reference books. Also, Russ Hatter has another book out on cemetery but not genealogy so much. I must get one and maybe three, one for the two gals. They are about $50 each.

Thank you, Virginia! Yes, my parents were pretty young when they passed. I'll check out the other Combs in the book when I get a copy. But I really don't think any of them are "my" Combs. We didn't move to Frankfort until 1960. Mom's people came from Bourbon Co Ky and Dad's came from Perry County Ky.
