NOTE:
I'm not sure this is the correct Cemetery as GPS location/cemetery address is not shown on this site; would appreciate hearing from someone who may know exact/correct cemetery location .. if I remember correctly from childhood, there was a small cemetery on top of a small hill (plateau) at the mouth of Spry Branch, which intersected with St. Rt. 10, a few miles south of Atenville, Lincoln Co., WV, this cemetery being near the homestead of Charlie & Georgia "Aunt Sis" (Farley) Spry .. I think there is currently some type of coal-loading facility at the site I remember ..

Another FAG contributor, Julie Ricketts, FAG Contrib. #48521138, has indicated to me that his place of birth was in the State of Virginia - I will continue research regarding this. It may be that the State of Kentucky was his place of birth if the area of Wayne/Lincoln County, WV, was known in 1850 as Kentucky - I will research regarding which present-day county, Wayne or Lincoln, was, in 1850, located in either Virginia or Kentucky; will also contact a family member (descendent) of his regarding same ..

I again find it very upsetting that an original memorial I had posted (this one on 11-4-2009) has been deleted by ???.. I will be reporting this to FAG as I have been doing as it appears someone can "hack"/"tamper" with the memorials .. This Note posted 1-26-2021 by Della Lilly on a memorial flower at site of FAG Memorial # 178490032.

I would never "hack into"/"tamper with"/"change"/"add/delete to bio"/"delete someone else's posting of a memorial", etc., so please be courteous and do not do it to memorials I have created; contact me, for whatever reason, regarding a memorial - This Note posted 1-27-2021 by Della Lilly on a memorial flower at site of FAG Memorial # 178490032

I originally created FAG Mem. #178490032 on 11-4-2009; HOWEVER, it appears that Dave Noveske "hacked into"/"tampered with" #178490032, alleging that he originally created it on 4-17-2017 (and probably transferring it later to Mona Lambert West). My question: How did I post the death certificate 11-4-2009 if memorial was not originally created until 4-17-2017? -- It appears we probably have a plagiarist (Mr. Noveske) in our midst ..
