KING-JONES

This burial site is on the south side of the White
Plains Road across the road from Battery Church.
There are at least two graves at this site, one of
which is identified by Omer Reid, Fannie Shorter,
Sallie Reid, Norman Shorter and others who live in
the Battery Community as the grave of Frank M. Jones
who died about 1927.  This man came to Taliaferro
County in 1917 and lived in the home of Jack Parker
on the Margarets Grove Road south of Margarets Grove
Church.  It is believed by all the old residents of
Battery Community that Frank M. Jones was an assumed
name for the assassin of President McKinley.  No
other graves at this site have been identified.  Mr.
Omer Reid says that this is known as the King Place
or the King cemetery but he doesn't know any of the
Kings connected with the place.
