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.
