Inhaltsangabe

Durward T. Stokes of Alamance Co. surveyed a number of abandoned or lost cemeteries – primarily in Alamance County, but moved around crossing into Orange, Chatham, and Randolph Counties. His manuscript was typed in 1979, but never published. His actual surveys occurred in 1958-9. This was fortunate, since a number of these locations are gone – and the old tombstones are not getting better (visually) with age. Therefore, I as editor, retyped his manuscript – and added historical remarks (where helpful), pictures I took in modern times, and a detailed index. Durward had some B&W pictures – which are included in this book as well.Lastly, there are two graveyards that I found, that Durward was not aware of - included with pictures and maps in an Appendix.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

This book's content comes from this authors collection of 15-volumes of Florida Land Grant Atlas books detailing all the grantees across the State - east of the State Capital. Future volumes will include the western panhandle. However, this book "mines" the information from all 15-volumes. In addition, there is a volume detailing all the Seminole Indian War forts, and freshwater Springs.
