GRAY - THACKREY CEMETERY

The end of 1999, I bought a family history book "Thackrey".  After I read the book and took notes for my own research,  I visited this cemetery Labor Day week-end, 2000 with my sister and we wrote down many of the stones and information.  I have more but can not find the papers,.  I do know there are Gardners, Wilson, Bradford, Mathews, and more.  This is one cemetery to visit when cool, for the snakes enjoyed that week-end being over 100!
