Elke, There is no mention of a Belcher Cemetery. There are several Hall & Bowling's listed. There is a C.W. Bowling Cemetery located in Thompson Valley & Hall-Brown Cemetery located near Burkes Garden. There are Halls and Bowling's listed through out the book. Do you have a first name or any of these?

I tried to post once and think I deleted it by mistake. Sorry if this is the 2nd posting. I'll have my Aunt record all the stones when she goes down in August. There are a lot of Yosts and a handful of my Ayer's ancestors buried there. I'll post the information on the Tazewell site when I get it. Carol Ramey wrote: > Thank you Jennifer!

I'll have my Aunt make a record of all the tombstones when she goes in August. It is a small cemetery with about maybe 50-60 Ayers & Yosts. Mostly Yosts are there. I don't know why they are in the same cemetery. They could have lived adjacent to each other. I'll post on the Tazewell site when she sends them to me.

Betty, some of my husband's Hall / Bowling ancestors and relatives are buried in a small cemetery on a hill (on the Ratliff farm) near Liberty, we call it the Belcher cemetery. Is there any mention of it in the book? Thanks for checking.

Could someone do a lookup in the cemetery book ? I am interested in William T. Brown died 1853, about age 47, Issac /Newton Brown born ca 1840 died unknown, and Margaret Elizabeth Brown born ca 1842 died ca 1860-1868. Thanks very much, Ann

Hi, I am interested in finding out if the cemetery book everyone is talking about contains any Meacham or Mitchem names (especially Joanna, Jedediah, Isaiah or Vicey). Also, Shorten, Lavina or Isaiah Smith or Henderson/Rebecca Elswick. Thanks much!!! Cheryl

Howery listed in that cemetery are: One Stone: Howery Dennis E. 1826-1890 His Wife, Mary A. 1845 - 1887 James H. 1870 - 1890 Dennis S., Jr. 1866 - 1902 J. Edward 1868 - 1905 Samuel c. 1875 - 1907 Dennis Howery m. Mary Ann Six Mar 7, 1855 Note: There is a Six Cemetery in the book also, if you are interested. Clinton B. Howery b. Jul 9 1877 d.

Doris, Yes, that book is still available. It is $25 plus shipping. Tamara Altizer gave a e-mail address, for them and that is the one I have, but apparently you can get to it.

In the book Some Old Cemeteries of Tazewell Co. page 11, The Harvey Cemetery, it shows only one Trigg: Elijah Trigg, husband of Deborah Trigg b. Mar 9 1831 d. Aug. 16, 1893 Hope this helps, Betty -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Monday, May 15, 2000 7:54 PM Subject: Re: [VATAZEWE] Visit to Tazewell/Buchanan cos. >I noticed you had connections to families I think my ancestors may have had >connections to as well. > >Do you have any information on the Trigg family.

Betty, There wouldn't happen to be any info in the book regarding James Brown who died in 1814 or his wife Esther who died abt. 1830. Both lived in Tazewell County -----Original Message----- From: Betty Moutray [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, May 15, 2000 7:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [VATAZEWE] Claypool Family Cemetery Diane, I bought the book from the Tazewell Co. Historical Society. It is really a good book. Lists 160 old cemeteries. I don't remember how much it costs but you could check with them. I know it was reasonable. Claypool Hill Cemetery - It says that there was a number of unmarked sunken graves and several fieldstones. Here are the ones you requsted: There wasn't a Maggie E. Williams listed. 1. Hurst Scott Marker: (This must be the funeral home) Deborah K. Richardson 1950-1950 2. Hurst Scott Marker: Jerry Neal Richardson 1951- 1951 3. Carter's Chapel Marker: Samuel P. Richardson 1919- 1944 4. Carter's Chapel Marker: Audrey L. Richardson 1924 -1944 5. Charlie Williams 1904- 1936 Hope this helps, Betty -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Date: Monday, May 15, 2000 6:47 AM Subject: Re: [VATAZEWE] Claypool Family Cemetery >Hi Betty, > >I'm looking for the graves of several people. >Maggie E.
