MT NEBO CEMETERY UNDERWOOD TALIAFERRO
RECENTLY VISTED MT NEBO CEMETERY IN WILKINSON COUNTY IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE.
THE GRAVE OF JOHN TALIAFERRO IS IN THE VERY BACK BY THE FENCE. THE INSCRIPTION READS JOHN TALIAFERRO CAPTAIN VA.BN REV WAR ( WHAT DOES THE BN STAN FOR?) APRIL,1821
THOMAS UNDERWOOD AND ELIZABETH ARE BURIED UNDER A GROUP OF OLD CEDAR TREES, I BET THESE TREES ARE 300 YEARS OLD O MAYBE I AM STRECHING THE TRUTH AT LEAST TWO HUNDRED THOUGH.
THOMAS INSCRIPTION READS THOS( hard to see)UNDERWOOD DIED JUNE, 9 1850.
ELIZABETH'S INSCRIPTION READS: ELIZABETH WIFE OF THOS. UNDERWOOD DIED OCT. (LOOKS LIKE )11 1860
THE SAME MARKER IS USED FOR BOTH GRAVES
DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THIS IS ACTUALLY THE GRAVE SITE OF JOHN TALIAFERRO, OR JUST A MARKER. SOMEONE HAD FRESH FLOWERES ON HIS GRAVE. THANKS
KEITH

Re: MT NEBO CEMETERY UNDERWOOD TALIAFERRO
Hello Keith: I visited Mt. Nebo Cemetery last weekend because I am researching my family name - Taliaferro/Toliver. Dr. John Taliaferro is my great grandfather x 5. My question-are you family and how are you related and where is his last wife burried, which would be Lydia. She is not my great grand x5 but his first wife Mary Hardin is my great x 5. I would like to know if there are any family members living in or around Wilkinson Co., GA. Plese E-mail me at: patsills@ hotmail.com Thanks, Pat Taliaferro Hilton

Re: MT NEBO CEMETERY UNDERWOOD TALIAFERRO
If you go from Irwinton on Wriley Road and cross the tracks at Wriley and go a few miles, the Mt Nebo road is on the right. The church is just a couple of miles after making the turn. Its actually between Wriley road and Ga 112.
