First Thank you I had that list that one Are there more graves or is it quite small?
Joseph and Mary Thackery should be there and Thomas and Ruth Hutson and Ida Hutson (d:
2000) whose Obit lists it as where she will be interred.
Also I have wondered about one thing for several years. My question is about Armated
Hutson (not on your list but in the online list for the Hutson cemetery) Perhaps
Armated's dates were misread on his stone. He is never shown in any census with Allen
and Roxie but should ahve been if the online records of the grave are correct:
"HUTSON, Armated 25 Oct 1887 aged 45Y 3M s/o Allen & Roxey"
Born in 1842, he should have been shown up in the 1850 (age 8)and 1860 census (age 18)
with Allen & Roxie but he didn't. Is it possible that the stone actually reads:
"HUTSON, Armated 25 Oct 1837 aged 15y 3m s/o Allen & Roxey"
Misreading 8 for 3 and 4 for 1 is a common graveyard error. This would mean Armated was
an older child who came from VA with Allen and Roxie, but died not long after they
arrived.
