John is burried in Christianburg Baptist Church cemetary in Monroe County near Pleasant's daughter Julia. Pleasant was my ggggrandfather. We think that John and Pleasant are surely related because they used the same names for their kids.....Nancy, Sarah, Mary...Can you help? Pleasant was born 1819 (we think in NC) and died in 1863 in the prison camp at Point Lookout Maryland. He lived in Monroe County as an adult. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sarah Mink PS I also have some entries from the Christianburg Baptist Church minutes that mention John as well as a will and some court records. If you want those, then let me know. = )
