I am sorry I don't have any information I was just wondering if they were buried next to each other.

Thank you very much for taking the picture. By any chance did you see if her parents were buried there beside her?
Thank you for your time and your work.

Yes, I live next to Chestnut Grove Cem in what was the old school house.
I bought a book from the Advocate Messenger that had all the graves in all the big and small cemeteries in Boyle county. But when I was doing pics for the Parksville Cem I found several stones that were not listed in the book. I added them to Find A Grave along with the pic.
A hundred dollars will get a 2 meter ham radio to start with. It helps to have other hams in the family as they often have good working radios that they have "out grown."Added by George Griebe on Feb 14, 2013 1:04 PM | |

I do not know if we are having Field Day at the RR Donnelly Pavilion this year. Last year the Wilderness Road Amateur Radio Club were at the National Guard on Stanford Rd and the year before at the Park on the North side of Harrodsburg.
I think that the Scouts may be participating with us this year, though.
Are any of your boys interested in getting Ham Radio Licenses?
Find a Grave has over 300 Hiram Johnsons so it was a popular name but not too popular.
The cemetery next to my house has 100 burials according to county records but I cannot find markers for 29 of them. People just could not afford a stone in many cases. One marker is a sandstone with the writing spelled out with copper tacks.
The fact that your relative is a Veteran greatly increases the chance that he has a marker. Sadly, we are a long way from having all the graves listed on Find A Grave, so keep checking.
Two people who might have been able to help you died recently. Albert Johnson and his half brother Buddy Johnson.
Albert Johnson's son Jerome runs Connie's Restaurant in Parksville, but he has only limited information.

Thank you so much for the picture. I think pictures add so much to the family tree. Would it be all right if I add the picture to my Ancestry tree? Again thank you very much. Lynn FullerAdded by lynn fuller on Feb 11, 2013 8:44 AM | |

I've read where people shouldn't use certain things on the headstones to read them better but my opionion is that these stones are in horrible condition already and it's better to use whatever you can to read the stone before there's absolutely nothing left to read. There's a Smith man that takes pictures of our Smith line for me and he found an old stone that was covered in black from age. He took a soft brush and water and scrubbed it & it looks real nice now & readable. He also said his arms were very sore from all the scrubbing:)
I've heard people use shaving cream or chalk. I would think chalk would be less messy.
I spent a week down there last year at my cousin's but she had car trouble & we never made it to any cemeteries.Added by Joyce Tinsley on Oct 03, 2012 6:17 PM | |

This is her headstone. I can make out her name and 9th of Jan but not the year. Were these headstones as hard to read when you were at the cemetery or is just the pictures?Added by Joyce Tinsley on Oct 03, 2012 11:59 AM | |

| RE: Johnson Grave
The dates look like ?th of January 1729 and
?th December 1802.
I went to Lincoln County, Kentucky Genealogy and looked at his name which was submitted by James P. Wagner and he has Noel Johnson Jan. 9, 1728/29 - Dec. 6, 1802. Then he has a listing for Tabitha, wife of Noel, Jan. 9, 1739/40 - Dec. 12, 1818. So I'm thinking that second Nouel is really Tabitha, except the birth year is different. Whoever transcribed for that tombstone may have thought the 4 in 1740 was a 1 and made it 1710.
The book Tombstone Inscriptions by Shirley Dunn only has Nouel 1 27 1710 - 12 26 1818 and doesn't list Tabitha.
I think the picture is on the right memorial.
I'll change the other Nouel to Tabitha.
Have I totally confused you? :)Added by Joyce Tinsley on Oct 02, 2012 1:13 PM | |

You can put the picture on the one you think is correct and I can look at it and see if I can read it.Added by Joyce Tinsley on Oct 01, 2012 4:38 PM | |

 | RE: James Benedict
Thanks a million for those headstone pictures. I do appreciate them. Do you know of any memorial I should add to Findagrave. Please let me know and I will see if I have them.
I descend from Lee A (Leanty) Lena Lou Ad Russell who was daughter of Elizabeth Jane Benedict and Martin Thomas Russell. Elizabeth was daughter of William Wesley Benedict. Does this help seeing if I am related? That would be nice.

Thank you for taking this group of pictures. Just what I needed to complete the "Perryville" group. I must have walked by that grave several times, but somehow never saw it.

In fact, I do have the photo of RH (Richard Hope) and his wife Sarah, and have a pretty good idea where they were. Can't believe I missed the one for Betsy. I don't live anywhere close -- actually, in Arizona -- so don't get there too often. June 2010 when we went it was pouring rain! Dang. If you wouldn't mind sending the other photos, I'd appreciate it. You can either send them to me at kith-n-kin@cox.net or post them. Whichever is easier.
Again, thank you very much!

Thank you so much for this photo. Can't believe I never found it, but so glad you did.
If I could request one more favor -- could you tell me the physical location of the stone? Looks as though it is toward the center of the cemetery, west of Jackson Street?
Unfortunately, in my photos I don't seem to have a "long view" that includes this stone, nor the taller stones in the background.
Thanks again,

| RE: grave of Thomas Barber and wife
Margaret Perrine's family is a mystery to me also. I saw the same information about John Barber, but still haven't found anything to verify the connection. His daughter Nancy Ann Barber married George Mutchler, my ancestor. Nancy is buried in the Old Harmony Methodist Cemetery in Harmony, NJ. Their daughter and son-in-law are also buried there. Margaret Mutchler (Robinson) and Richard Robinson, a War of 1812 Veteran. There is a couple of John Barber's Esq. buried in the Old Greenwich Prebyterian Church Cemetery in Stewartsville, NJ. I can't make a connection to Thomas, however.
If you find anything, by all means email.

| RE: grave of Thomas Barber and wife
Just got your message. The church needed to expand and the only direction they could go is out the side towards the parking lot. The graves were in the way and rather than disturb them, the church addition was built over these graves. There are about 12 graves under this addition. One thing for sure, they will last a lot longer than those exposed the the weather. I have installed a Veterans marker for Thomas Barber right outside the door that leads to the actual graves.
I have a question for you: Have you don't any research on the mother and father of Thomas?Added by Jay Rutan on Apr 27, 2011 3:51 AM | |
