There is a stone above two slabs in Ellaville Cemetery. The stone is topped 
with a conch shell and is engraved with only the last name "McCrory."

I believe this stone marks the graves of Seaborn M. McCrory, b. 14 Dec 1854, 
d. 14 May 1901, and his son [Clyde] Cleghorn, b. 21 Jan 1889, referred to in 
the Schley County News obituary.

Both are listed in the 1900 census of Macon Co., Ga.:

McCrary, Seaborn M. 47 Stablekeeper Ga
Mary I. wife 42 GA
Harrell P. son 22 Insurance agt. Ga.
Charlie E. son 14
Cleghorn son 12
Seaborn son 9
Janie D. dau. 7
Margaret dau-in-law 19

The Schley County News  Friday, September 21, 1906
DEATH OF MR. McCRORY
The remains of Mr. Cleghorn McCrory, who died of Typhoid fever at the Americus
Hospital on last Thursday morning was brought to Ellaville on the afternoon
train of the same day.  The funeral services were conducted from the home of 
Col. C.R. McCrory on Friday morning and interred beside the grave of his 
father, the late Seaborn McCrory, who died at Oglethorpe several years ago.
(Note:  Ellavile cemetery surveys do not indicate either Seaborn or Cleghorn
buried in Ellavile City Cemetery.  Both obits do.)
