    (See # 55) Enid's marker reads: "Enid, daughter of M.C.F.A.N. 
     Honeycutt," with dates.  Father was known by his fourth initial, 
     Arcemus (sheriff of Yancey).
    The ones to the right of Charles Adon Peterson are:  (See #s 63,
      64, 65 & 66)
    1. "Infant son of C.A.V.K. Peterson, born and died 10/23/1900."
    2. "Charles G., son of C.A.V.K. Peterson,  8/10/1903-8/7/1904."  
     (CAVK is Charles Adon)
    3. "Onie I., daughter of CAVK Peterson, 10/10/1901-3/19/1903."
    4. stillborn child of  Pauline Peterson (dau. of Charles A.).  
        Footstone has been borrowed from elsewhere, with initials A.H.
    (See #s 12 & 13) Between Frederick Michael Honeycutt and 
      Magnola Duncan  were (the last time I recorded) two graves marked 
      with fieldstones: children of Will Styles and of ______ Deyton; 
      both families lived on Coxes Creek and were renters from Ephraim 
      Honeycutt.  
    Best wishes,
    Lloyd
