Visited with Becky McDaniel Williams today concerning the 
McDaniel/Tate/Strickland Cemetery.  She and her husband, Malone, own the property 
now...purchased about 2 years ago.  Rufus Williams is a brother to her husband, 
Malone, and they oversee the cemetery together.  She said it was the 
Varnado/McDaniel cem (but Harts had it the other way).  The cem is behind their 
home.  No new burials since last recorded; she and her husband will the the next ones,
she said.   4/14/2001 - BEC -
