| Daddy
and I photographed this cemetery on Halloween of 1991.
We bought the shaving cream at Puckett's store and went to the cemetery ** When we got there, the cans wouldn't work, so daddy left me in the cemetery while he went home to get more shaving cream. Daddy has never been known to do anything in a hurry. :) About an hour later, close to midnight on Halloween, he returns. All this time I have been sitting in a cemetery, at midnight, with shaving cream, and later, I find out that this cemetery was known for it's Rattlesnakes. It's a wonder I didn't get snake bit or worse, arrested for vandalism. **DO NOT USE SHAVING CREAM ON TOMBSTONES! Dad and I didn't know better. Below is a listing of the cemetery and all the stones that he and I could find. We have been back and couldn't find any of the others in the day light either. I have a special love for this cemetery, because Benagea Carlton is buried here, and in Jan. 1991, we had a son, and named him Benagea Elliott. Snail Shell Cave Road and Rockvale Road. About 200 feet south of road in a field on a small rise. (Was fenced the last time I was there.) |

Patsy Paterson photographed this cemetery again in 2008. The stones that state couldn't be found in 1991, yet do have stones are Patsy's work.
