The message below was posted by Vonda Sheets on the MOTANEY list and I found the second link with pictures of the family very interesting. Some of the photos feature names I have heard around Stone County.

I'm looking for a Mary SIX and "Babe", died May 1880, according to the Mortality Schedule for the 1880 Census for Stone Co.(she is entered as SIT though, not SIX). Has anybody come across a stone for this poor mother, who died a few days after childbirth, this baby was a twin, of which one -- Eva -- survived? Thanks for your help! -- Cheryl
Eddie, Are you in touch with one Joe Cameron? He has his family pages on the Internet at: http://home.naxs.com/cameronnet/index.htm My Sarah and Joe WADKINS are mentioned there. This is how I found their names actually. Hope this helps and maybe we connect.

I plan to be in Stone County sometime this summer.Since my g-grandparents lived (and I assume ) died there,I am very interested in visiting the area of the old Ponce de Leon township.I know that my g-g-grandparents,Wesley and Louisa Henry are buried in Ponce de Leon Cemetery.Can some one tell me how to find these places,as my maps show nothing helpful? Emma Owens,Dayton,Nevada
Hi, Ponce de Leon (Poncey to locals) is a small town West of of Hwy 160 between Highlandville and Spokane, on County Road V. There is a road sign, if you are going South on Hwy 160, I don't know if there is one going North. I've never been to the Cemetery, but have been told it is on the North side of the town, on a hill side if I remember right. If worst comes to worst, I can scan/send you a page from my map, which has it on it.
