He kindly went with us back to the same dirt S.R.683, and pointed out .3 miles from S.R.683, going south again. In 35 feet tall pine block on the east side of the woods road. A cemetery with a rock wall around it, in a badly grown up area of thick vines and ground cover. again, we found no Palmer's (listed on monuments.) 1.
