He searched Riley's Memorial Cemetery (due to my mistake) and then he searched Riley's Creek Baptist Church Cemetery. After not finding the grave, he went to the church office and asked about the cemetery and if they had any records of the Hopkins. They found a hand drawn map of the cemetery across the street that had the plots laid out and who was where.
At one time, James had a stone as he is marked on the map, plus 3 unmarked Hopkins graves.
Mr. Kuzan laid his sweatshirt on the ground where the graves would be located.
