Janet, You wrote >> Pearly and James are buried in the Pleasant Hill Methodist Church Cemetery in Thompson Valley, Tazewell Co., Virginia. It states there is one tombstone; Pearly Peery 1885-1945 James W. Peery 1882-1962 There is also a Hunnel buried in this cemetery and there are about 3 other Hunnel's burried in other cemeteries. A lot of Puckett's in this cemetery. >> Thanks for the info. This is the James that I am lookin for. I am trying to determine if his mother is Mary Serilda Hager/ Lambert (she used both her Fathers surname and her step-fathers surname) who married Samuel Puckett. I have an intestate record for Mary Puckett in 1925 listing him as her son, but have no idea why he goes by the Peery surname. There is no record Mary was married before her union to Samuel Puckett. Can you tell me the Hunnel and the Pucketts who are also buried there? Maybe I can connect him that way. Any info will be greatly appreciated.
