    1. Re: [WVMERCER] ??Matoaka Cemetery name??
    2. I would love to have a copy of this photograph. I have a 92 year old Godfrey aunt who would love to see this photograph. Please let me know what the expense will be. I cannot copy if off of the computer here. I have no copier. Thanks for this offer. I have been told that there is a photograph of Harrison Henderson Bailey out there. IF YOU ever know of where I could get a copy I would be in your debt for life.
