| Family of Joseph Keath: | ||||||||||
| Delilah w/o Joseph Keath d. July 13, 1843 [age was in concrete, so I don't know when she was born] | ||||||||||
| And finally, the elder Keath, who was probably the grandfather of the Keath children buried here: | ||||||||||
| Gabriel Keath d. Oct 26, 1833 age 52y 9m 1d [Born abt Jan 25, 1781] | ||||||||||
| My conclusions on the families buried in this cemetery: | ||||||||||
| There are five children of T. M & N. Stringer buried here. The parents are not buried here. I don't know their names. | ||||||||||
| There are at least two, possibly three, Keath men whose first name started with a G. | ||||||||||
| Gabriel Keath was born about 1781, so the children buried here were probably not his, more than likely grandchildren. | ||||||||||
| Elizabeth Keath was likely the first wife of the G. F. Keath since she died 1840, at 17 years of age, and the | ||||||||||
| children of G. F. Keath were born after that, and their mother was N. M. Keath. | ||||||||||
| There are two Ray Keath's in this cemetery, one the son of G. &. D. Keath, born 1824, and another the son of | ||||||||||
| G. F. & N. Keath, born 1842. Its possible the earlier Ray was a son of the Gabriel Keath born in 1781, and the | ||||||||||
| later Ray Keath was a grandson or nephew of Gabriel Keath, and this latter Ray Keath's father's names also | ||||||||||
| started with a G. | ||||||||||
| My guess would be that Gabriel Keath had at least three sons, Joseph, one with initials G. F. and another | ||||||||||
| whose name started with a G. | ||||||||||
| I'm not sure how, or if, the Stringer family is related to the Keath family. | ||||||||||
