Sylvia Fletcher ws born July 1820 in VA, her parents are unknown, her children were/are Mariah, Judy, Eliza, Sam, George, Henry, Cesar, Dave and Daniel. In their later years lived with one of her children and as Cesar was a deacon of Saint Paul Missionary Baptist Church, it stands to reason his family attended the same church and the Church Cemetery contained the family burials.
It was told to me, by my father Lake Simmons Jr., two of Cesar's children had same name but different mothers and Dave Simmons was a cousin, this is noted, but record will remain as found.
As members of the church, I place them in the church cemetery as well.
It's noted she had been previously slave married with children, that noted Cesar as a stepfather on the census record.
