The majority of my ancestors, including my parents are buried at Basin Springs.  My great grandfathers, David J. Greene, 
and John Siebman, are early settlers of the Basin Springs area.  

In order to document my records, I have photos of many of these tombstones.

First of all, all of the Greenes you have listed spell their name GREENE -- with 
the e on the end.  The exception to this is Ethridge W. Green, who is my 
grandfather's half brother.  He dropped the E to spite his father who after 
the death of his mother, married his aunt, which is my great grandmother.  
And Guss A. Green, which everything I have except the stone has an E.  

Other errors:

You have listed EIEBMAN, JOHN A. 1857-1916 stone with A. JANE.  This is Siebman.

Green, Ervin should be Greene, Ervin B.
Green, Robert Milan should be Greene, Robert Milam -- this is my grandfather.

I cannot find a listing for Maddie Greene, DOB Nov. 10, 1909 and died Mar 5, 1916.

Also, on Robert Joe Cody, you can now fill in the dates of April 6, 1970 - September 26, 1997.  This was my only nephew.
There are other relatives that have recently died, which are not listed.  

Green, Lois Mae -- is wrong:  It is GREENE, LOIS INEZ she died Jan 23, 1998

You can add:

GREENE, CARL Mar 10, 1915-Apr 6, 1998
GREENE, Thelma June 1, 1917-July 31, 1999

I organize the Annual Robert M. & Grace Greene reunion each year.  This year's 
is in June and I had planned to go a day early to check on the cemetary 
and make my own listing.  I also hope to draw a layout of the cemetary 
to show where each grave is listed.  If this comes to pass, I'll be happy 
to share with you.
