I have a photo of the original map showing the layout of Mt. Zion Cemetery.
It shows Lot #234 belonging to Ireland/Carter, measuring 9'x36'. Then in a
separate book, Lot #234 has space for 9 graves, but only the first 4 appear
to be used, as they are the only ones with names. It shows the following: 1)
John Ireland, d. 1868 2) Elam Ireland 1875 [but then it was marked out and
the name "Hannah Stone" is written in its place] 3) Anna Ireland 1864 4)
Elam Ireland 1875.
Also interesting to note, just a couple of lots down is Lot #237 belonging
to T.W. (Thomas W.) Carter. Buried there is 1) Thomas W. 1906 2) Lydia
1876 [with a note that says she is the daughter of Thomas W. and Lydia] 3)
Margaret 1875 (1876 in a later note) [with a note that says she is the
daughter of Thomas W. and Lydia] 4) Lydia 1876 5) BLANK 6) Luly 1923.
Lot #49 has a C.R. (Columbus R.) Carter 1924. 1) Belle 1944 2) Columbus R.
1933 3) Mary Jane 1958 4) Thelma T. 1927 5) William T. 1888.
If you'd like copies of these photos I'd be glad to send them to you. Email

cemetery records that relates to the Ireland surname.

They are listed 1880 Rand. Co. with 3 Hiatt children. No Charles Ireland
