Roper ================================================================================ April 2005 The following was found in some family records. It appears to be a listing of lot owners but could also be a listing of lot occupants. The probable occupants were listed with dates but NOT called occupants or any other heading on the list. This is just a guess as to what the names and dates mean. This list is here to encourage someone to survey the cemetery, transcribing the existing tombstones and comparing what is actually in the cemetery to this list.
