I inhaled and snorted cow dung me bad.<br />We were happy to find the gravestone but it is broken ~ the top half had been cemented to the front of the bottom half where his wife would have had her name and age at death. We have not found her death recorded anywhere. We thought perhaps she had remarried and the death recorded under a different name.<br />Your Friend<br />WillsSweet William The Scothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18230298902594046758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2749546306155683444.post-42569274639578244562019-01-08T08:44:17.134-05:002019-01-08T08:44:17.134-05:00Glad to see that you and Lee did not get lost on y...Glad to see that you and Lee did not get lost on your trail looking for history. I can remember when our parents took me and my sister around looking for our history. Sometimes it's sad to see how much of our history is gone. Sweet William you need to get out in the country more to not understand the treat you found it that field.

Ma's only goes back abouts 100 years on her Moms side, and it's a little sketchy on the timing on her Pops side, maybe 120 years. She would have to go to Texas to see any of her ancestor's graves. <br />Anyhu, loved the tour SW! I hopes you and Lee are doin' well!
