Edward Shaw From: "Edward Shaw" Date: Thursday, July 20, 2006 9:47 PM I am aware of the locations in Campbell Cemetery (a bear to locate in itself way up on a hill), of the graves of William Henry Starnes (father of Geo. Wash. Starnes), his wife Mary Jane Lunsford Starnes (her family of Enoch Lunsford),and one grandchild George Thomas Starnes (son of Geo. Wash.Starnes) d. ca.1912 (I have the dates somewhere) of Tetanus. I know the tetanus story from my mother who watched her older brother die of 'lockjaw' they called it then. In my teen ages, my grandfather Geo. Wash. Starnes took me there and showed me the locations, which were still marked by rocks at head and foot, but no inscribed markers. I understand that cows have all but destroyed the area; that from my cousin who visited about 1980. Aside from myself, there is probably no other person alive who knows these things. A pity. From: "Edward Shaw" Subject: Re: Lincoln Co Cemeteries Date: Friday, July 21, 2006 12:14 PM I did not expect to hear from anyone, so I am pleased. I am not a genealogist, but I have copious records of varying things, many having relationship to Lincoln County where some of my ancestry has lived prior to statehood .. Mason, Hicks and others. I append a map showing the precise location of the old Campbell Cemetery. When I was a youngster, the only way to it was through the indicated family trail from the farm, across the creek, and up the hill. The access from Blue Licks Road was made a little before the gasline was put in, but that dirt road is very near or adjacent the gasline vapor-pipe, and the road goes very steeply uphill alongside a property fence to the "Campbell Burying Ground", as it was known to my family. Then I append a couple of scans made for me from slides taken by me in 1954 when I was a young teenager. Obviously, I know little about the area now since it was over 50 years ago. The farm then was owned by an elderly gent, living alone with a housekeeper. His family name was Camenisch and I understand that his family had been there many generations. His first name may have been Richard. He had been a school mate with my mother at Turnerville School. So long ago. So long ago. Just from my childhood memory, I would hazard a guess at a total of 30 graves in the Campbell Burying Ground. I am told that, by 1980 when my cousin visited there, there was one section of stones with names that were protected from the meandering cattle with a wrought iron fence around them. The entire copse of trees upon top of that hill measured no more than a full acre I would guess. Finally, I append a second map of the entire area marked with notations of interest only to my family.
