Celeste Virginia A. Patrick, born 14 SEP 1868, died 22 JUN 1904, married Charles Luther Stanton. She was the daughter of James Thomas Patrick of Newton County (b. 18 JUL 1822, d. 27 MAR 1893) and Mable Armencia Elliott (b. 14 FEB 1830, d.23 JUN 1900). James Thomas Patrick was the son of William Patrick of Newton Co. (born 1796, died before 1837) and Rhoda Watts (b. 1796, d. 7 JAN 1870 Newton Co, GA). Rhoda, the daughter of Richard R. Watts and Elizabeth (Townsend), married first to Asa D. Starr, second to William Patrick, and third on 18 APR 1836 in Newton Co., GA., to Jackson Harwell, son of Samuel Harwell and Mary Marie Jackson.

One family tree states that Celestia and Luther Stanton were buried in the Patrick Family Cemetery in Columbus, Georgia, while another family tree on the internet states that they and also her parents, James Thomas & Mable Armencia (ELLIOTT) PATRICK, are buried in Patrick Cemetery "off Sewell Road," which appears to be Sewell Road that heads northeast out of Mansfield to Interstate 20 in Newton County.

In "Newton County, Georgia, Cemeteries," Volume I, compiled by Sara Anderson Dixon (Mrs. Dennis B.) and Mary Jane Dixon (self-published: Covington, GA, 1968), pp. 18-19, lists the cemetery as "Patrick Cemetery, Brick Store." The burials recorded there in this book correspond to the memorials in the cemetery posted as "Gibson Family Cemetery" on FindAGrave, and several FindAGrave volunteers are using Gibson Cemetery on Patrick Road as an alternate name for the Patrick Family Cemetery. However, they are not the same cemetery.
Patrick Cemetery is much smaller than Gibson Cemetery. Ward Sandahl says: The plots are hard to find, but can be found on the Elliott farm. The location according to GPS would be 2022 Sewell Rd Mansfield, Ga. 30055. The coordinates are:
Lat 33.55689
Long -83.46850


Luther and Celestia appear on the 1900 census of Newborn in Newton County, and Luther is still there in 1920.
Their son Rudolph Stanton was buried at the Patrick Cemetery in Columbus, Georgia. It appears there are CENOTAPH markers for his parents beside his marker.
