I received a very nice picture from Lascassas School, 1896. Some of the ppl in it are : Mildred Dement, >Ernest Martin, Fannie Wines, Dalton Childress?? not clear, faded, 2nd row >is Mary Cason, Orville Pennel, Mathie Wines and Hall Jarrison I'll post it asap. It's a very good picture. Lascassas is in Rutherford, isn't it? (duh..I get worse every year!) Mari

Spain's Hill is named after my family. Since I have not been able to find the graves of two of my ancestors, I have wondered if there was a family burial plot on this property. I am looking for the graves of Stephen Spain (d. 1840) and his wife Lucy Verell Spain (d. 1860). I am in hopes that, with the new homes and development in the area, perhaps someone will stumble over a family graveyard. Stephen Spain purchased 640 acres with the following description: WILLIAM WARD TO STEPHEN SPAIN: 10 Dec 1818, partly in Wilson Co, partly in Rutherford Co, 640 acres on the dry fork of Falling Creek, bounded by JOHN DONELSON'S property. Oaths by WILLIAM SEARCY and ALGERNON PIEARCY. (At the time, the property was described at being partly in Wilson County and partly in Rutherford County with WARD "of Rutherford County" and SPAIN "of Wilson County.")
