I used to visit Charlie's grave at Little Hope Cem in Falkner as a child every year. My family and many others would have an annual family reunion at the cemetary. In fact, I have photos of this family reunion as far back as the 40's. Now that I am alot older and most everyone has passed on there has been a good 15 to 20 year gap since these reunions. I have been visiting the cemetary quite often snapping photos and what not, however, have come across a delima. Alot of the headstones over the years have been destroyed and well time only knows. Charlie and his wife Jane's headstone have vanished. If anyone out there knows of its exact location please contact me via email skunk2si99@aol.com. I hope and pray that their graves will not be like so many others, lost in times hourglass, for this generation would be the last to know or even care. God Bless.
