Hallowed Ground - Alanreed rancher rescues graveyard from prairie http://amarillonet.com/stories/032600/tex_hallowed.shtml Hello All, In this morning's newspaper here in Amarillo was a great article on the front page about a man near here who is restoring a prarie graveyard over 100 years old. He has researched some of the people who are buried there and is attempting to re-erect some of the markers and has organized an effort to get a fence around it. Well, ya'll read the rest of the story. I plan on contacting this news reporter and the Alanreed man, Delbert Trew and see if he will furnish an inventory of the people who are buried there. I will post it to Rootsweb when I get this information. Good reading! Ruth There are two groups of people. Those who divide people into two groups, and those who don't.
