 | Find A Grave Memorial# 71150505, Roberta Ailson Baumgardner
If it meets with your approval, we would like you to transfer management of Find A Grave Memorial# 71150505, Roberta Ailson Baumgardner, to us.
As Roberta Alison, she broke ground for women athletes in the South, when, in 1963, she was recruited to play for the men's (yes, men's) tennis team at the University of Alabama, becoming the first woman at any SEC school to compete on a men's varsity athletic team. Among her many accomplishments, Roberta won the women's colligate singles title in 1962 and 1963, and the doubles title in 1963. In 2012, the University of Alabama dedicated its new indoor tennis facility in her honor.
As managers of her memorial, we would like to include an expanded biography of her many accomplishments, and to sponsor her memorial, so that we can add additional pictures documenting her career. Perhaps, we can even work to give her memorial "famous" status.
Thank you for your consideration.

Wendy,
This is the grave of my mother and should read Ruth McMath Garrison, as McMath was her maiden name. I would also like you to transfer this one to me.

WADE ROWLAND'S DEATH
After the Leader had gone to press last Wednesday we received the following letter from Mr. Rowland which will read with interest by many sympathizing friends:
Dear Sir,
Having received so many letters from Roanoke, relative to the sudden death of Wade, I presume there are some there who would like to know the particulars and I will relate them to you, so you can write a short article in reference to it, as he had many relatives and friends there.
He had gone out to the country about three miles with a Mr. Thomas, who lives next door to us and who has a farm three miles from town where they had gone to get grapes, peaches and watermelons. Two or three other boys were along and Mr. Thomas noticed a rain coming up and went to the wagon to get the things out, and Wade and his son went with him. Wade was leaning on the back end of the wagon in contact with a piece of iron, and when the lightning stroke came,
he got the direct stroke. The mule was killed also and Mr. Thomas in in a bad condition yet from the shock he received. Three others were knocked down. Wade lived about five minutes. He was 13 years old and was born and raised in Roanoke and you know about the time he left. The good people of town did all they could and we wanted for nothing. Hoping you will publish a short piece from the above facts, I remain, yours truly,
R.G. Rowland.

I noticed you had taken photos at the Lilly City Cemetery in Dooly County Georgia. I am trying to locate information on an old schoolmate, Royce Bowen, who was born in 1948 or 1949 and passed away sometime before 2010 and may be buried there. His mother, Lillian B. Bowen, was buried there in 2010.
If you have any information about Royce, or can get a photo of his tombstone if he is buried there, I would greatly appreciate it.

 | Calvin Wheeler Memorial's
Hello Wendy, I wonder if the solution to the double memorial's is I would transfer my Memorial's to you , since mine were made first, and according to Find A Grave Guide lines we are suppose to keep the oldest one and delete the newer one. I am just trying to connect the family on the Memorial's. So if you want me to transfer Calvin Wheeler 1923-1898
