I found a relatively new marker for Benjamin Lawrence Gowdy
beside a very old marker for Ellen Jane Mixon Gowdy in the Thomas cemetary in Olanta, SC. There are also other Gowdy's, Caker's, and McKenzie's there.

Glad you found it!

No dates on the tombstone?

Is Benj. the R.L. on the 1860 census with a first wife?

Yes, Cathy, Benjamin was married twice and apparently is buried by his second wife, Ellen J. Mixon (1850-1920). The Monument is fairly new for Benjamin (1835-1893). I do not know who erected it next the the obvious aged one of Ellen.

He was a civil war veteran, if the marker is white marble with a gable top it could be a civil war marker. My nephew in SC knows about him. He was my great grandfather.
