Clear DayGreeting EVERYONE - I hunt clues in books of all kinds, obits,
newspapers, online, records, family, friends, etc... You get the idea...

I was going through the McCreary Co. Record's obits for 'clues' and came
across Ogalee Griffis' obit. Her obit said that she was buried in the Keith
Morrow Cemetery. Griffis aren't my line. Matter of fact almost everyone in
my FTM are not in my direct line. Makes no difference because I've decided
to add anyone I can. When I checked to see if I had her in my FTM I noticed
that her Mom & Dad were both in a different named cemtery. Her brother
James B. Griffis was also in one of a different name. I figured they were
all the same one though and they were. I usually check with things with
Milford B. Creekmore, Ist but he wasn't home. So just to make sure I called
Debbie Campbell at the Pine Knot Funeral home. Debbie asked Greg Burdine
for me to make sure that the Keith-Cooper Cemetery was also the Keith
Cemetery. Sorry, but I can't remember what the exact names of the
cemeteries were. I'd been "visiting" the Keith Cemetery, Parkers Lake,
McCreary Co., KY for the past!
3 hours. By visiting I mean I've been checking the cemetery book &
'online' records and my FTM.

Below are the names I have found for the SAME cemetery. It's no wonder I
stay confused. Although I've been here 20 years I don't know my way around.
I can imagine how people who have never been here feel. Whether or not it
was located in Pulaski Co., KY Or McCreary Co., KY depends on when the
person was buried. The Keith Cemetery was located in Pulaski Co., KY. That
part of Pulaski Co. became part of McCreary Co., KY in 1912.

yahoo/hotmail/excite

Surnames - AUSTIN, DUNCAN, SLAVEN, KING, MOSES, STRUNK, CHITWOOD, ETC...



Tim West - I noticed this and thought I'd bring it to your attention just
incase anyone was to ask you - When NANNIE SEXTON BUTTRAM died in May 1960
the Peaceful Rose Garden Cemetery, Oneida, Scott Co., TN was called the
Pumpkin Hollow Cemetery. I figure every tidbit can help.
