Hi Sandra, I was just there last November. The cemetery, the old part, is in very bad shape. The grass and such are kept, but the stones are broken, there has been lots of vandalism there. I truly hope you are able to find the ones you seek. If you are coming down from Jackson, take the first Crystal Springs exit. Turn left. There will be an ice cream place on your left. Turn left there. There will be an old corragated aluminum building soon on your left. The cemetery is about a mile or so out on the left. Very big, you won't be able to miss it. There are only a few trees. Very hot. Be careful. There are some old graves also at the New Crystal Spring Cemetery as well. That is on my agenda for this October. Happy Hunting.

I need to get to Old Crystal Springs Cemetery from I-55. Can someone help me? We'll be trying to do go there tomorrow morning. Someone gave me directions a couple of weeks ago and I ended up forgetting to pack them to bring with me on vacation. I'll be going to photograph the graves of James Armstrong STURGIS and his wife, Sarah Elizabeth WOLFE STURGIS. Thanks, Sandra Tipton __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Rob, I think it's just fine, but I am no "computer" genius anyway.

Maybe I wasn't around long enough to have become "fond" of the "old" such that I've successfully navigated the site and enjoy all the hard work. Keep it up, it surely helps those of us who are not local to Copiah!

Bob-I LIKE the new query boards...sure, it is something new and it will take some time for some of us to get used to it, but having tinkered with it since it first came out, have found it MOST useful. It allows much greater access to the data and you can also add photos or files to your messages which you couldn't do before.... I hope you will continue to use the new query boards so that Copiah County will have the same access as others using the format. Just my two cents.

Hello Everyone, I'm seeking your input on the new query boards that replaced the old ones that we used to have. Please take a minute to check it out if you haven't been there lately. You can access the new query board by clicking on the 'Query' icon or hotspot off the Copiah site, which is located in the top left corner. I would like to know how uall feel about it. Many of the County coordinators for MS are tossing around the idea of building another query board. If you are new to the list here is the link for Copiah (www.rootsweb.com/~mscopiah). Thanx Rob aka Bob

I'm sorry Marti, I don't. Jesse & Mira had no children. Up until 1970, they had been living in Meridian. And no one left in my family line remembers Mira's maiden name either. Is there a town hall there would have a street directory for that year? Or even town tax records?
