Tombstone Tuesday is a daily prompt at Geneabloggers which
asks bloggers to create a post including an image of a gravestone of one or
more ancestors; it may also include a brief description of the image or the
ancestor.
My great grand uncle Ulysses Jollett and my great grand
aunt Sadie Janiera Lamb Jollett are buried in Coverstone Cemetery (formerly the
EUB Church Cemetery) in Shenandoah, Virginia.

Aha! And here is the tombstone of Ulysses and the mysterious Sadie from your previous post. Interesting that Janeira is spelled incorrectly and Sadie is not listed as her first name.
ReplyDeleteThat surprised me too.
DeleteFor a brief second I thought you were going to post about President U. Grant. Very nice post and who is this mysterious Sadie? I'm thinking we shall see more!
ReplyDeleteHA -- yeah, you don't run across too many people today named Ulysses.
DeleteI think the fact that she was 3 years older is cool...I am 1 year older than my husband....but in 1982 that was no big deal....way back it probably was.
ReplyDeleteHappy Tuesday!
"Robbing the cradle" as they say. I've run across many instances of older wives in my research.
