This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/EJB.2ACE/547.1 Message Board Post: How appropriate that I saw this today. I just returned from a week in MS within the hour. My nephew and I cleaned out about a 25' by 25' area in the Garret graveyard that you mentioned Saturday morning before the chainsaw slipped its blade and the rain got too much. I had hoped to clean the area where the all graves are but will have to get it Thanksgiving. I know the graveyard is now called the Garret Cemetery but was once know as the Dunn Cemetery, my GGG Grandfathers obit mentioned it, and my grandmothers sister called it the Fowler Cemetery. My GG Grandfather John A Garrett is buried there with his wife, unmarked grave, and son, as well as my GGrandfathers first son. I have pictures I took last Thansgiving if interested. I too was interested in the Berry's. My grandfather also came from Sumter Co in 1852. I have census images of the Berry's in Sumter if interested. Please keep me informed. I would love to know more before I go back in November. You must have been the one that went down there on a four wheeler. We followed that trail and walked with in 4 feet of the fence and did not see it. You really have to know where it is. My email address in geraldallred@attbi.com. Please email if interested in exchanging info.

Can you tell me the actual location in Jefferson County of this cemetery? Do you know which Fowlers are buried there?
