About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

From "Pine Log and Greek Revival: Houses and People of Three Counties in Georgia and Alabama" by William H Davidson: "The Thorton family cemetery is near the house*, surrounded by a handsome rock wall built by slaves, but the Thornton graves in rock tombs, are not marked."
*John T. [Thornton] and William Thornton were pioneers of Harris County. They were brothers, and came to settle near Whitesville from Wilkes County, Georgia. The family was prominent in the area, and owned over 800 acres of land in 1832. The builder of the Thornton-Williams house was John Turner Thornton, born in November 23, 1810, died September 10, 1876. His wife, Lucinda Thornton, was born April 20, 1816 and died October 15, 1878."
