I traveled there to meet with distant relatives who were kind enough to drive me around looking at various sites of our mutual ancestors. They had previously located a broken gravestone that identified some young children of the family but had never located the grave or the main part of the stone. I wandered off and spotted a stone half hidden under a pine tree with the inscribed side totally hidden. When I dug through the branches I discovered it was the missing grave, and it listed detailed info on the family! One of the people with me wondered out loud why they hadn't noticed it previously and I suggested that the ancestors were waiting for us all to be there to reveal themselves.CallieKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04991717349717389292noreply@blogger.com
