Linda, I "second" that, many thanks. I understand plans are under way for the committee to restore and put up a memorial stone for those buried on what was once the Barry Co Poor Farm. I imagine donations for the memorial stone will be needed. So far several names of those buried there have been found. I know the committee would welcome any information anyone has on who is buried there. Donna had featured the Poor Farm on the Barry Co site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~mobarry/county/cf.htm Darla ----- Original Message ----- From: <Mccantique@aol.com> To: <mobarry@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 10:22 PM Subject: Re: [MOBARRY] BCGHS CEMETERY RESTORATION AND PRESERVATION COMMITTEE > Dear Jack, Jay, Ted, et al ... > Our whole-hearted thanks and appreciation for the more-than-fantastic job > done on finding, repairing, restoring, and photographing Barry County's > cemeteries and freely sharing all that priceless information with the > rest of us . > The hours and hours so many people have spent wading through > weeds-mud-chiggers-ticks, in the cold of winter and stifling summer heat, > just boggles my > mind; such dedication cannot be begged or bought.
