SCHS Cemetery Project, Miscellaneous Cemeteries, Vol. 1 (I-21): http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/southampton/cemeteries/miscvol1.txt His mother's name is difficult to nail down. "Feeter" RAIFORD, daughter of Albert Nicholson & Carolyn (BULLS) RAIFORD, m. 31 Jan 1878, in Southampton Co. (MB3:264). Lloyd's D.Cert. 32933 (Franklin #105) gives Feeta. It also appears Fayetta, Frietta, Fyetta, &c. His sister's name was Feather, so that may be another possibility. His step-mother, "Mamie" Mary Frances (PARSONS) NIBLETT, is buried with her maternal in grandparents in a WHITE family cemetery, between Courtland & Wakefield.
