Was your William Henry Sterrett from Kentucky-----perhaps Hawesville,
Owensboro, or Louisville? My family of Sterett (Sterrett) moved to Evansville from
Hawesville before 1900. The wife and eldest daughter both died of tuberculosis
after the turn of the century. Most of the Sterretts were
Episcopalian/Presbyterian/Baptist.

My sister [Linda Julius] and I are in the beginning stages of trying to have a Cemetery Preservation Board formed through the Daviess County Fiscal Court & County Judges for Daviess County Kentucky.
At this point, the County Judge Elect, Reid Hare, stated to me that his concerns are that the County will be held liable to match any monies the State of Kentucky produces for occasional Cemetery Grants. He has informed me there are probably over 50 cemeteries in Daviess County that are in need of care, and states that the County would not want to participate in a Board, where the County might have the burden of putting up money that just isn't there for this type of project. He has turned over my request to Daviess County's legal advisors, and is having them research what all is involved with a Cemetery Preservation Board and their [The County's] responsibility to it.
I also informed Mr. Hare that no matter what the issues were, I still would like a board formed as there is a need in this county for preservation of all known and unknown cemeteries in the county.
If you are interested in having a Cemetery Preservation Board formed for Daviess County, please e-mail me with a short paragraph of your wish for one and put in the subject line: Daviess County Cemetery Preservation Board.
Also start the letter to:
Me [Judy Bailey]
All Daviess County Judges
Owensboro/Daviess County Commissioners
Owensboro/Daviess County Planning Commission
Also, please let me know if you are willing to attend any meetings called by the Courts, Commissioners, or Planning board. The more people that make their voice heard about this, the more the need for such a Group will be proven. Also, let me know if you would be willing to participate on the Cemetery Board, or with any cemetery clean-ups, fundraisers, etc. Let me know the name and location of any Cemetery that is NOT taken care of by any Church or other organization and is in dire need of attention.
As you all know, my concern has been Fern Hills Cemetery, but I feel sorrow when I see any unattended Cemetery. I think it's everyones place that has any descendant, no matter how remote the connection, buried in a forgotten cemetery to protect and care for their burial spot, no matter where it is. If we don't do it, who will and what would stop progress or neglect from taking these cemeteries over?
If you have any question's or want to discuss this further, you can contact me at [270] 926-2094 or [270] 485-1084. An impromptu meeting concerning this will be held this Tuesday, Aug. 15 or Wed. Aug. 16 at Shoney's Restaurant on Frederica St., Owensboro, Ky., early evening. If you think you may like to come, please call me.
This can turn out to be a learning experience for anyone thinking of starting such a board in any County. We'll be learning as we go... Everyone is welcome to join us.
Thanks Everyone! Judy

Melinda, not related, just trying to help. I found Christopher's marriage in 2 different databases. In both the marriage took place in Vanderburgh county on 16 Oct 1823. In the one on ancestry.com the brides name is listed as Morgan Rose. In the other in the Indiana State Library her name is listed as Maryan Rose. I also found the following marriages in Vanderburgh county for Linkswilers or variations thereof. Phebe married Benjamin Rose on 14 Feb 1821. Mary married Wellis Rose on 28 Apr 1825. Jane married Jackson Rose on 28 Jan 1841. Martha married Joseph Stephens on 18 Jan 1844. Isaac married Sally Rose on 31 Mar 1825. Mary Elizabeth married Jesse Parsons on 1 Mar 1846. Good luck. Don
