    3. Thanks Henny. More info: There are two cemeteries with the name Drummond in them that I've found - "plain" Drummond and Drummond-Folden. Drummond is in Section 36, and Drummond-Folden is in Section 23. The name of the person is Andrew Cullen Baker. His parents, Joseph and Sarah, are listed on galliagenealogy.org and are buried in Drummond-Folden. Andrew doesn't appear in the list of gravestones on galliagenealogy.org. I do have a Grave Registration Card from Gallia County that was sent to me by another researcher. It gives his name as A. C. Baker, and the name of the cemetery is given as Drummond (Allen). Under Marker, "upright" is checked, and the location is given as Row 8, Grave #15. His Civil War service is noted on the card, but there's no indication there was a separate marker commemorating his service. It seems purely informational. The fact that the word "Allen" appears in conjunction with the name of the cemetery and the fact his name doesn't appear anywhere is kind of confusing. Perhaps that marker from 1913 simply deteriorated. Still I was wondering if anybody knew of a third cemetery with the word Drummond in its name. I can't find any burial records for his wife, Mary Corn Baker, either, so I bet she's in the same cemetery, wherever that might be! I did locate death records for both of them, but there's no cemetery information on Mary's (she died in 1890), and Drummond (Allen) appears on Andrew's, filed under "Andrew C. Baker".

    3. You are correct in that there are two, Drummond-Folden and Drummond. I will see if I can learn which of these might have been Drummond-Allen at one time.
