Hello Ron,
I appreciate your excellent suggestions. It may sound common sense to you, but it truly helps. This is the first time I will be researching in person in Alabama.

I appreciate your note of sadness for what has happened to this cemetery. I am almost afraid to see it in person. It is so disrespectful. I am going to try to find out some more information on the current state of affairs.

Thank you again for your kindness.
RBarnes
