Sue Barrett March 24,1905 October 29, 1905 Jan 27, 1994 May 15, 1976 I couldn't help but notice that right across the road from these is a "Cornelius Lambert" - you have that one already? His dates are Jan 13, 1910 - March 11 1958 - (wife side is blank) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Then, in Section 13: William C. Black Sept 9, 1897 Aug 25, 1971 BLACK Junius W. Mary U. Sept 10 1872 June 24 1876 March 2, 1937 Sept 24, 1959 (Flowers have been placed here recently) J. Fred Black Aug 25, 1909 June 5 1952 Mildred Gum Black Oct 3 1907 (I think these dates are right - it rained on my paper. :-\ Feb 18, 2000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In section 12: Frank Scott Black Mar 1 1899 May 31 1967 A life of service to __________ (can't read it either. oh oh. It will show in photos) Mary Benhain Mitchell Black (I do NOT remember writing that second name - the B Nov 8 1901 name. It's on the paper though. Silly word. Hope May 17 1960 I wrote it wrong.) A life of love and Christian Service There are the same kind of flowers at this grave as are at Junius and Mary's. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The only ones we didn't find are Carl D. and Charlotte T. She may be there with her husband, but no clue what her name is? Or is she Carl's wife? There is only the one 'group' - Junius and his wife, William C. and J Fred and his wife. The other two couples are separate in different areas, and in none of the places did I see any signs that there were other family members buried around them. In the first case and the last one, they aren't in 'blocks' or 'plots of eight' or squares or anything. Around the one grouping, there weren't any others that seemed to be related at all. Behind them was a row of Smiths, but they just didn't "feel" like family.
