James A Gamblin gave permission (Feb2023) for us to use his pictures from Find-A-Grave.   Thank you so much.

Unless noted, all other pictures were submitted by Laura Gregory Roberts who lives in Henderson County.

Many resources were used in obtaining this transcription.  A big thank you for former CC Holli Boone Kees (click to read Holli's obit) for many of the names.
