    Ref: WBH, granddaughter. When John died, soldiers were camped at the Methodist
    Church at Bartow. The family meant to remove him after the war to the church
    cemetery, but this had not been done when Margaret died in 1865, and she was
    laid to rest beside him.
    One of the Civil War battles was fought on their homeplace; Will and Henry
    carried their mother to 52nd VA Regiment camp, which was principally from
    Augusta, as she was ill. She remained there during the night.

    was deputy surveyor for the county under Sampson Mathews, first surveyor of
    Pocahontas Co. Roscoe W. Brown, surveyor in 1938, told WBH that he had always
