Maybe this will spark a new interest in at least preserving the information in the old cemeteries before they are all destroyed by developers. Many rural areas are being quietly bought up these developers and cleared of everything, trees, old houses and cemeteries. I've been working on another cemetery book but I can't begin to visit all of the areas of the county that haven't been covered. If anyone has any information to include I will be more than happy to give you credit for the information gathered.

My wife & I have been helping Linda Stanley on the new cemetery book for several years now.
