Mary Jane Galer's "COLUMBUS, GA: Lists of People, 1828-1852, and Sexton's Reports to 1866" (published in 2000), p. 199, shows: a child of W. H. GRACE died aged 14 months of inflammation of the bowels and was buried 28 JUL 1854 (from "1 July to 1 October 1854 Sexton's Report for deaths in the City," dated 27 NOV 1854. It is understood that, rather than being accounts of death in Columbus, these periodic reports by the sexton recorded burials in the municipal cemeteries. They include persons who died outside of Columbus but were buried in the city, and they exclude persons who died in the city but were interred elsewhere. The sexton at that time was Thomas NIX). John H. Martin’s “History of Columbus,” Part 2 (1875), p. 79, confirms.
Buster Wright's "Burials and Deaths Reported in the Columbus (Georgia) Enquirer [Newspaper], 1832-1872" (1984), p. 176, shows: GRACE, Christina C., daughter of W. H. and Prudence GRACE, died 23 (sic) JUL 1854 in Columbus, Georgia (published 01 AUG 1854.
This grave is evidently not identifiably marked. Based on the date of burial, it would be in either the Old Cemetery section or Section 1.
