WOW! my husband and i just came back from a trip to the cades cove area, we drove by the
cemetery and decided to stop as i am mesmorised by history. I became very amazed and
intersted in the cable/wilcox family(s), I loved seeing the closeness and how tight nit
the family seamed. I thought i would research it but never thought i would actually find
anything about it and surely never thought i would be able to read a post from a family
member. One of the major things I could not stop but wonder about was the ages on the
headstones, so many seamed so young and to have passed within a close window of time. was
it due to something specific, an epidemic or something of that nature?
sorry to pry,
thankyou
