Mose Barlow drown at same time. Elizabeth Moore remarried a man named Farmer. Don't have any more information, must be cousins, or other relatives of the Robinson line. Lived in Garrard County, Crab Orchard area or other nearby areas. Don't know who parents of Elizabeth Moore were? The marriage must have been 1860's or prior, because John Nelson Robinson died from 1860-1865 I am guessing. Please email M.Robinson, margrob@webtv.net with any information.

Posted 02/27 Enyard I am looking for information on Mollie Enyard, born about 1893. I believe this Mollie Enyard was adopted by James "Clay" Brown and his wife, Annie Belden Brown. They had no children of their own. From 1900 to 1930, Mollie is with Clay and Annie Brown, lastly under Brown and not Enyard and was listed as their adopted daughter. Clay and Annie Brown are both buried at Brush Creek Cemetery and there is a Mollie B. Copley buried there with a single stone that has the dates of born 9 May 1893 and died 1 March 1960. I am hoping this is Mollie B. Enyard. I think she waited until after the death of both Browns before she married. I don't think she had any children of her own either, but someone had to have put the stone up for her unless she arranged it before she died. I need some help!!! Thanks for your time, Brenda Richardson Waters of Louisville, Ky. Posted 02/11 Evans

Church in Rheber. I clearly remember a old headstone of a woman

headstone of Alfred Garrett that has been replaced with a
smaller one. If anyone has information about this Evans
headstone, who it belonged to and why it was removed I would
really appreciate it.
