the people buried there? I know Thomas Lary is buried there
but is his wife buried there also.
This is a comprehensive list of many resourceful web sites.

Margaret was the daughter of William Snellgrove who is listed on the 1830 Bibb County census. I can find Margaret Snellgrove Sledge on the 1850 Houston County census listed as a widow with four children and her father William Snellgrove living with her.
If anyone can help with this search for which Sledge she married I would appreciate it.
Her daughter Nancy A
