(special thanks to Jon #47985592 for the following info) Amanda "Mandy" Bennett Bell Little is my great, great grandma. She was born January 28, 1840 in Hall County, Georgia and died March 25, 1924 in Jackson County, Alabama. Family records says she is buried at old Sardis Cemetery in Jackson County, Alabama. Same place as her son Jack. But Jim Little is buried at Liberty Hill Church Cemetery in Jackson County (at least according to his death certificate). I can't imagine them buried in different places.

Burial: Old Sardis Cemetery Section Jackson County Alabama, USA^[1]
