We had a big day yesterday, Tuesday, September 17 with finding and touring through old cemeteries in the Raleigh and Brisbane area. Mary claims some of her ancestry with people buried there. Five of us included sister Sharon, sister-in-law Sharon, brother Mike, Mary, and me. Obviously, the blacksmith used the same pattern in making the signs.- - - As an aside, we saw hundreds of acres of unharvested wheat. Unusually heavy rains stalled harvesting it in that area, now it is breaking down and sprouting. We learned one farmer combined some to see if an elevator would take it, but he came home with it after the elevator rejected it.
