You're right. I should know by now not to go from memory. Several of my Hilton kinfolk being Methodist are buried there and Westleyanna both Methodist cemeteries. Yes Richard's web page has been a God send for me in living out of state and both parents families being from Simpson County. I've gotten some genalogy research that has Star as being listed in Simpson County. I think that since a lot of the folks just across the county line say they live in Star but live in Simpson County causes this confusion. -------------- Original message -------------- > Rexford is online too on Richard Neely's Simpson County site,,,, and it's > Methodist :-) > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: > To: > Sent: Wednesday, January 19, 2005 7:41 AM > Subject: Re: [MSRANKIN] Cemeteries in or near Star > > > > There are two main cemeteries in/near Star.
