I have a easy post today. Trudy McGuire has done all the work on this one for me and the blog. Trudy has become the Jameson's family's foot soldier in Morgan County lately. Sincerely, from myself and the readers of the blog, thank you for all of your hard work, Trudy.
If you were wondering about what the shape of Oak Grove Cemetery is currently in, well here is our Jameson plot there. Everything looks to be in good order. The date of these pictures are from last Monday, October 10, 2011.
A couple of notes that Trudy shared. Number one, I did not realize that John Jameson's engraving was on the back of the same stone of the grave of his siblings, Agnes and Archibold. Now of course, as I have said before, John's body is in New York City where he died. It only makes sence that the family honored him by not buying a new stone, but adding him to the back of the same stone of his brother and sister.
There is another note that Trudy found that can be seen in the pictures. Trudy states "the double headstone has red flowers on John's side and white on Archibold/Agnes". It also appears in the pictures that flowers are on William and Mary's grave. You can see in the pictures that there are no flowers on the other stones all around our Jameson plot. If it was the cemetery caretakers (the church) placing the flowers, they would be on all of the graves. I wonder who placed the flowers recently on our ancestor's graves?
*****UPDATE, UPDATE, UPDATE*****
I'VE FOUND THE FLOWER LEAVING COOPERATES! THANK YOU JOYCE AND DIANE SCHUMACHER (DESCENDANTS OF CLAUDE ERLES JAMESON'S SIDE) FOR LEAVING THE FLOWERS ON THE GRAVES AT OAK GROVE, FROM ALL THE JAMESON DESCENDANTS
