Research notes

I personally visited in cemetery in August 2019 and could not locate the graves although they are listed as being there. Many of the stones are badly damaged, some are unreadable, and a few have fallen face down separated from the base.

Personal history obtained from notes kept by Harriet Taber Miller Johnston, my grandmother and our family's first genealogist who kept impeccable records.
