I just found out that my GGGGrandmother is supposed to be buried in the Stafford Cemetery in Wilkinson Co. Her name was Elizabeth Jane Stafford Hutcheson and she died in 1866. I am guessing that 2 of her children who died as infants are probably buried with her, Sorance and Ansell Hutcheson. If anyone knows of the whereabouts of this cemetery or these graves, I sure would appreciate the help. This is one of my brick walls. Thank you, Stacy McSwain
The Wilkinson County Cemetery Book from the Civic Club shows the Stafford cemetery to be on old Hospital Road, Section 2, township 1 north, range 1 east. I checked the book for the names you mentioned but they where not there. Sometimes headstones where missed when the cemetery was recorded, but, the sad fact is, many of the graves in the old cemeteries do not have head stones. Many of the early markers where made of wood and have rotted away. Some never had headstones at all.
