The folks you are looking for very well may be buried on the North Shore. I've seen some of the headstones on the other side and they very well may be illegible.

If not, I suggest you order a copy from the Swain County Register of Deeds. It should name the place of burial. Another source would be to check the Swain County Cemetery Book published by the Swain County Genealogical Society. He may well be listed in it if the stone is still legible and he is buried in Swain County. Hope this helps. Dee Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
