Hello Stan, No, I don't have a death certificate for Sina East Roark. I do have a copy of her death and burial record from Alexander Funeral Home. It says in part: Name: Mrs. Sina Roark, widow Place of Death: District 9, Macon County, TN Date of Birth: 18 Feb 1849 Date of Death: 2 Feb 1934 Birth Place: Macon County, TN Name of Father: MADISON EAST Birth Place of Father: Macon County, TN Maiden name of Mother: MARY LEE Birth Place of Mother: Macon County, TN Cause of Death: Flu Date of Service: 3 Feb 1934 Place: Galen B. C. (Baptist Church), Macon County, TN Name of Cemetery: Roark B. G. (Burying Ground) This records says Sina's mother "Mary Lee" was born in Macon County, but the Macon census record of 1850 says Mary was born in Kentucky. I've been told that Mary's parents were Joseph Lee and Mary Siddens Lee of Monroe County, KY, but I have no record of that. This record also says that Sina was buried at Roark B. G.--perhaps "Burying Ground". But, the Allen County, KY cemetery records list the name of the cemetery where Sina and husband Asa W. Roark are buried as "Stinson Roark Cemetery". The Roark Mail List at Rootsweb is a great list--especially the archives. . These are my husband Charles' folks.

I seem to see them in a lot of cemeteries. I hope someone has more information that can help you over this bump in the road of your research. Do you have a death certificate for Sina? Thanks for being part of the ROOTWALKER family.
