Hi All! Thanks so much for the wonderful advice! I am hoping to cram as much researching in as possible in a few days! Could i please impose just one more small question? Is there anyone who knows or has directions on how to get to the New Prospect Cemetary on Helton Rd.? I have some BIRD relatives buried there but have no idea how to find it. I would appreciate it if anyone could give me directions from the courthouse in Rutledge to there? Thanks so much for all of your time and consideration! This list is great! I finally have my web-pages up and running with a few Grainger County Surmanes listed on it if anyone is interested!
