Also Linda has taken photographs of some of the headstones -- if any one is interested in seeing these , let me know and I can hopefully send them to you. ----- Original Message ----- From: macbetty2@peoplepc.com To: TnMarion list Sent: Monday, April 14, 2008 4:21 PM Subject: [TNMARION] She needs information Linda sent the picture in to us that Iley just put on the web and she also asked the following-- I thought perhaps some of you have had more experience with this than I have and can help her out better.

I've just recently found the graves of my Dad's grandparents and I wondered if you could help me? This grave yard is in very bad shape. We're not sure how many graves are actually there or who owns the land. Is there anyone I can contact to make sure the graves don't disappear altogether? I know for a fact that there are two civil war veterans buried there. I have information showing that the G.A.R. decorated their graves. To get there at Powells Crossroad turn onto East Valley Rd (I think that's the name) going toward Dunlap. Go about 3 3/4 miles and the road is on the right. The last time we were there,there was a single wide trailer sitting there and the graves are a little ways behind the trailer on the right. Any help would be truly appreciated. Thank you so much. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PLEASE NOTE: This list is for queries and replies, comments, requests for help, and other genealogical related information that is of interest to researchers having a connection or a possible connection to Marion County, Tennessee.
