|
|
|
Family of G. & D. Keath (whoever
they were): |
|
|
Ray
s/o G. & D. Keath d. Jan
17, 1843 age 18y 2m 6d [Born abt Nov 11, 1824] |
|
|
According to Joe Case: |
|
|
"G" is Gabriel Farrow
Keath S Jr. - son of Gabriel Farrow Keath Sr., stone 8 |
|
|
"D" is Deborah Case Keath,
sister of Moore Case & John Quinn Case, who are buried in the Case
Cemetery |
|
|
|
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. |
