I would like to correspond with anyone having knowledge of the Edney WEST and Obed LEE marriage as well as their time and place of death. Thanks.

Listmembers, I have been firmly corrected about previous email in which I wrote that Sarah/Sally WEST married Peter LEE in Sampson County. Regrets! Sarah/Sally WEST married George PETERS (or so I am told.) This question remains: when and where did George PETERS die? Thanks.

Sarah (Sally) WEST married Peter LEE in Sampson County. Does anyone have a date of their marriage? Does anyone know when and where Peter died? Any help appreciated.

Hi Bob, Don't know if you have Lynwood Cemetery or not, so just in case I'll forward the information I picked up when I first visited there a couple of years ago. Still would love for someone to clean up the area. The Kivetts are my family, but I have no idea who the other people are. Good luck, Dolores LYNWOOD CEMETERY Spring Lake, Cumberland County, NC From Fayetteville, take NC 87 north through Fort Bragg and Spring Lake. Go north from Spring Lake on NC 87 to Chapel Hill Road (SR 1601) and turn right. Go .3 of a mile and turn right onto McNeill Road (SR 2564). The cemetery is in the intersection of these two roads. There is a mobile home immediately in front of the cemetery. The cemetery is in a wooded thicket and in very poor condition.
