Eileen, I looked into the Wilkes Street Cemetery Complex and it is made up of many old cemeteries in Alexandria. Many of them were attached to particular churches. Do you happen to know the religious affiliation of the Gradys? Another source might be the Alexandria Library and the archives of the Alexandria Gazette. Mary My God provides my every need according to His riches in glory. Amen __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
