I got to work this morning, and read your very disturbing story about the cemetary stones. I am looking for Southern Gurleys, and am at a complete dead end. I don't have much contact with that side of the family, and can't get any information from them. My great grandmother was Etta Cassie Gurley, born 1878, died in the Spanish flu epidemic in 1919. She married John Marion Whitson, in Fayette County, Alabama, and is buried alongside him in the New River Church of Christ Cemetery outside of Fayette, Fayette County, AL. My grandmother, her daughter died April 1, 2000, and I have had no contact with her for 9 years at her request. So, I can't look to family for any answers. I have no idea who her father might have been, but was told a good while ago that she was born in the area she died in. Got any ideas to point me in a possible direction. You can put me down as a researcher if you want to, with my home email, please, e-mail address, and I have the following names that I have been able to find a good deal of information on: Whitson, Ray, Drake, Strickland, Rogers, Olive, on my father's side, and Bentley, Dennis, Driver, Gentry, Jones, Norris, McMullen, on my mother's side. Gurley is my dead end.
Thank you,
Leah Ray Swindle.
