Submitted by: Peggy Russell meemawpeg7@gmail.com Additional Comments: I did not find a tombstone for Mr. CLARKSON in Breckinridge County. Big Spring is a town where the city limits lie in three different counties: Meade, Hardin, and Breckinridge. To find him one should check the Hardin and Meade county's cemetery books.
