Wilkinson Lamar Cemetery

This is coming from information written by a Morton L. Reese and I will include the dates that are noted as recorded by him. This gentleman has mapped out each cemetery and numbered graves to names. He has given directions, too. Some of these stones may not exist now, but WOW, what a great reference to go by! It seems that he copied word for word the information on the headstones, what type of headstones, and describes them. If anyone wants to get further info on any of these graves. I will be happy to provide it for them. It would take awhile to copy word for word. Hence, the abreviated version below.
Plus, if anyone would want to go with me to compare them, I would love it! Wilkinson - Lamar Cemetery (info recorded April 7th, 1922)
