I found this message on a tombstone:

Behold you strangers passing by
As you are now so once was I
As I am now you must be
Prepare for Death
And follow me.

The name on the tombstone was Aunt Maggie Mcclung
and she lived from 1874 to 1975.

I visited that cemetary in the summer of 2000. I didn't care that the sun was going down and getting darker by the minute.
Almost didn't notice that Great-Great-Uncle Lee Jones' grave had fallen in and almost went for an unplanned visit.

Didn't get to visit the far side of the cemetary, but will next visit.

Noticed a very old marker from the 1840s, don't remember the name, found out when I got home that she was my GGG-grandmother's sister.

What are your surnames??

I cannot believe that I missed that one! I have been to this cemetary to see my Jones' great-grandparents Dewitt & LaDona Jones who are buried there. Almost walked into Great-Uncle's caved in grave!

Would love to see if we are related somehow, email me at vagenealogist@yahoo.com
