I have no information on the Patterson's listed, but it is very likely that they are related to my Pattersons buried in the same cemetery. Have you been there? It is really small. My Burke/Patterson headstone is under the huge old beautiful tree that was damaged in the Microburst a few years back. George Patterson, born in Canada, married Minerva Burke and they both died about 1920. They had Sadie Patterson who married Married Alonzo Gove and their child was Wilson Timmerman Gove born 1893. Nellie married Herman Walts and they had George 1887 and Glenn 1895 and I am looking for descendants on the three (Gove and Walts). My hunch is Saddie and Nellie were nicknames. I am a Burke descendant and Minerva was my gr gr grandmother's sister. Sharon Patchett ------------------------------
