Note - Alfred wanted to be buried in Glenwood Cemetery, but as the newspaper article noted, but due to sudden illness, he died of Small Pox and was buried quickly in Forest Hills Cemetery, memorial number 14328391 in Chattanooga by the Evening Star Lodge No. 6.
Although the records still show that he is still buried in Tennessee, I wanted to show that his wish was to be buried in his home town Glenwood Cemetery.
It is a bit of history that might have been lost and never passed on to family members generations later.
