Bio and Links
Since 2007, I have been dedicated to locating, listing and photographing all the Randolph County, Missouri cemeteries I am able to get to. I have completed listings, with photos of each stone, of about 155 cemeteries so far, mainly to provide the county historical societies with updated listings and accurate locations. I am just starting to put these on findagrave, and in the interest of saving time, have only entered the name and years for now. I have more info for most of these memorials, which I hope to add and link as time allows. It is my thinking that having just the names and dates posted may help someone find their relatives. I am very willing to transfer memorials to relatives, even distant ones....just ask and let me know how you are related. I will be glad to fulfill photo requests as I am able to, so if you are looking for someone in a particular cemetery, please feel free to contact me.

Please use the Edit/Suggestion tab to send info or to request transfers. Thanks!

RE: Isa Dora Bennett 69285800
She is the first wife of R. F. Bennett, she had a daughter, Minnie Mollie Bennett with him. It seems like she died in 1870 possibly, the little girl was born in 1869, and haven't found why she died.

The little girl Minnie was adopted after R. F (P) Bennett died in 1874, by his brother John S and Elizabeth Bennett.

Someone has found record of where Minnie married, but I'm still looking for that.

Mattie B. Bennett, is the child of R. F. and his second wife, Amanda Darby Bennett, who married a Henry Thomas Newton. She was a full sister to my grandfather Robert Elmer Bennett. She had the 1/2 sister Minnie, and then Newton 1/2 siblings too.

Including obituary from Moberly Monitor Index on Mattie B's death.

Obituary (Moberly (MO) Daily Monitor, May 3, 1909)- Miss Mattie Belle Bennett, aged 37 years, died this morning at 7 o'clock at the family home six miles east of Cairo from consumption from which she had been a patient sufferer for the last ten years. She had been bedfast 15 weeks. Deceased is survived by her mother, Mrs. Amanda Newton, and one brother. She also leaves the following half brothers and half sisters: Mesdames Ocie Burton and Walter Scott and William and Orville Newton. Miss Bennnett was a member of the Baptist church and was a lovable woman whose deeds of love and charity upon this earth have won for her a crown in heaven. The funeral will be held tomorrow at 2 o'clock at Union church, four miles northeast of Cairo conducted by Elder Wright.

Please link them, as I didn't know to request it. Thank you so much, as it means a great deal to me.

Thank you so much for adding the photos to Lennis' memorial and the prompt edits! I do not need a transfer, though I do appreciate the offer. I happen to have the memorials for his parents and someone brought them to my attention the other day which is how I came across Lennis. Thank you!

Dear Nancy,
I meant no criticism of your photo, I hope you didn't take it that way. It is wonderful that you are helping so many of us discover our families final resting places. Much as I would like to be able to return the favor to others, I am physically unable to. Your photos help those, like me, visit our families when we would never be able to otherwise. Would you mind if I copied and posted the photos to my family tree on Ancestry, I will certainly give you credit for them. Thank you again for taking them.

Grant Allin's headstone
You photographed 99408789 Catherine T Allin at Hebron Cemetery, Macon, Macon County, Missouri, USA. By any chance, was Grant Allin in the same cemetery? He is her husband.
Grant Allin 110615047

The SAR application on ancestry shows the burial place as College Mound, Macon Co, MO.
I thought that if you had more pictures to upload, that you may have Grant Allin's gravestone. I just thought it would be worth checking.

Nancy,
I am unable to read the headstone photo you posted to the memorial for my husbands grgrgr grandparents Leonard and Jemima Dodson. I was wondering if you could send me a transcription of the Headstone so I can make sure I have the correct info on their memorials. They died on the same day, and I have the correct date for their deaths, but am trying to verify their birth dates.
Thank you for recording their headstone.
