Is it possible that Fred Ickes would have a Quaker listing of who is buried
in Spring Meadows, or are you inferring that he probably checked that ?
It is said that there is no stone there for Wm Oldham.

Hi All;
I have seen reports that William Oldham is buried in
Friends Cemetary. I have looked at the records at the
Bedford County Historical Preservation Society and
he is not listed in their Cemetary book as being buried
in Friends Cemetary. I have looked for and cannot find
a gravestone for him in Friends Cemetary. I asked Fred
Ickes what he thought and he said "Probably Crum
Cemetary". I don't know where William is buried, and I
don't think anyone knows for sure.
