Wheatley Family
Rose

when I visited, her photos were not coming up--a shame because she has
photos of Sarah Wheatley Nobles and Harold Nobles. She also has a

Cemeteries
Cemetery Junction - Locate cemeteries throughout the United States. Most helpful if you already know the name of the cemetery. There are links to many transcribed cemetery records on the web, and you can add your own if it isn't already on the site. You can also search for specific graves.
Old Emma Cemetery - A transcribed list of graves in the Old Emma Cemetery in Crosby Co., TX. It should be noted that when we visited this cemetery, we found several graves that were not listed in the transcription, including one which we assume is the grave of a black child with an inscription which reads only "Little Nigger." There was also a gravestone which was no longer legible but which had the name inscribed with marbles--we assume this was also a child's grave. We hope to go back to the cemetery this summer to map it, and will post the map when we do.
Wheatley Cemetery - A transcribed list of graves in the Wheatley Cemetery in Benton Co., TN. Includes directions on how to reach the cemetery.
