VA 1786-1983 Message-ID: Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Friends, Relatives, Compatriots: On the farm of my cousin in Glade Hill, Franklin Co., VA is the site of Byrd's Mill, situated on the Pigg River. Cemetery on the property has the following graves which may be of interest to someone. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- 1 unreadable large stone inside iron fenced plot. Mary WIGINGTON b. 1826 d. Nov 28/not clear 1911. Levisa BYRD b. 27 Aug 1816 d. 24 May 1912 Aged 96 yrs. Benjamin BYRD b. 29 Oct 1804 d. 2 Jul 1881. Levina BYRD b. 8 Oct 1786 d. May (?) 1879. Elizabeth BYRD b. 26 Jul 180? d. Apr (?) 1879 1 fieldstone marker, uninscribed/worn. Outside the fenced plot: 1 fieldstone marker outside left rear corner of fence. 1 Metal marker: Ruby Turner LAPRADE 1913-1942. Robert H. YOUNG b. 31 Aug 1884 d. 19 Dec 1959. Julie B. YOUNG b. 29 Jul 1895 d. 1 May 1930. Daniel F. YOUNG b. 11 Apr 1858 d. 17 Apr 1928. (Father) Lucy B. YOUNG b. 3 Jun 1862 d. 26 May 1937. (Mother) Stewart T. TURNER b. 2 Nov 1878 d. 18 Apr 1958. Gurtie V. TURNER b. 16 Feb 1887 d. 2 Feb 1952. Evie T. MUSGROVE b. 1911 d. 1983. 3 possible fieldstone graves outside right side of fenced plot near road. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=- My cousin related to me that Evie T. Musgrove was one of 7 Turner siblings that she knew of, only 2 of whom are still living (I believe children of Stewart and Gurtie above): 1. (Mrs. Buren) Ernestine (Turner) PERDUE 2. Garnet (Turner) GUTHERIE Other deceased siblings (buried elsewhere) are: Hilda (Turner) ARRINGTON Annie (Turner) DENT Tom TURNER Curtis TURNER -=-=-=-=-=-=- The above information is all I can relate on this family. I was unable to better read the stones--almost stepped on a copperhead last year. Perhaps others know more of this family...glad to help as I can. I don't believe this info is in the old Cemetery Records of Franklin Co. VA book, nor do I believe this info will be in the first issue of the new book--no one is aware of this cemetery (even tho it's next to a public road) except the family and my cousin who lives on the farm. Happy Hunting. Peter Ramsey ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 6 May 1998 13:29:52 EDT From: Bervi To: btrvetc-l@genealogy.org Subject: Matilda Victoria Turner m.
