I checked on this cemetery with the people who own the land and was told that it was a private family cemetery. I asked if we could gain entry to just write down the names on the stones and the lady said she would have to ask her husband and get back to me. That has been two or three weeks ago. She also said most of the stones are smashed because the land was used for cattle grazing. Margie of the Crazy Cemetery Ladies of Lenawee County
Hi Margie. Long time no see. I am now living in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Did you ever join the DAR on our John Mann's record?

Well, hello Joyce! I always wondered what had happened to you. No, I have not joined the DAR. I sort of lost interest and then got busy doing cemetery research. A friend and I have several websites online and we are really kept busy with borrowing cemetery records and copying them to our site. (Just google Crazy Cemetery Ladies of Lenawee County) We also "walk" the cemetery and write down everything on the tombstone because so many of our local cemeteries do not have good records. It keeps us busy. Did you every join DAR? Gilbert and Albert Mann are my glitches. Can't get proof of a good birthdate record for either one. Also, Almira (Gilbert's wife) is listed in her town's records as "Elvira", so not sure they would accept that, either. Maybe I'll just take in what I do have and let them tell me what's missing. Are you still in contact with Tom Jenkins down in Georgia? My computer crashed last summer and I no longer have any of the old e-mail addresses or I would try to get hold of him. I have ended up with a ton of Mann records, so if you are in need of something, let me know.

Margie, IF you get in, please ask if you can take photos, take someone's digitial camera and take lots and lots and lots, over all photos and close ups, take several close ups too, so that you are sure they are in focus. If you get in, contact me, ok??
