KIN BURIED IN THE GRESHAM CEMETERY

I found the Gresham Cemetery while driving out the Shipley Rd. I had always thought the Gresham Cemetery was closer to Hales Chapel. So now I need to check out the Shipley Rd. What great clues these cemetery photos give. I now know how A J Range comes into the Bacon family. AJ was a brother to Rutha A Range who married John Range. AJ and Rutha were children of Elkanah and Barsha Range ; Elkanah bought land in 1888 from Cynthia Grimsley Hicks Bacon. (DEED - Cynthia Bacon to E D Range November 27 1888 Bk 54 - Pg 553) So now we know that Isaac Bacon who married three times was the owner of the land and the son of James and Magdalena Niemon Bacon where the Bacon Cemetery is located on Elmer Walker Road. This past December 2011 I traveled the Shipley road from the Old Stage Road to Hales Chapel road over Buffalo Ridge to Shadden road to get the feel of where our families were located and yes all were living on this route and were closely connected to each other. What a fantastic drive to get the feel of what it was like in those early days!
