These names were all taken from the business listings on one of the maps on the site I posted the other day. If this atlas was done like others I've seen, the business owners probably paid to have their names listed,s op the lists are by no means complete for a given area, but just include those who were willing to pay for the advertising. All spellings are as they appear on the map. I'll be posting these lists as I do them to my website as well. They're pretty interesting reading, especially when I recognize the names. M. P. Sentman, for example, is buried over at Flint Hill cemetery as I have a photo of his stone from a trip to the area, but I had no idea who he was. I like to be able to fill in some of the pieces this way!
