In 2007 visited John Green Cemetery in Burnt Corn Alabama. Was dismayed to see the condition. Several family members began a non-profit association, obtained historical status, requested donations, obtained a grant and worked on restoration of cemetery and set up perpetual care. Restoration included replacing most of the beautiful pewter fence, repaired/cleaned headstones, conducted ground penetrating radar and located 9 missing burials, family worked on cleanup and rust abatement on fence in November, and built a shelter/bench. Plans are to have a dedication ceremony next fall
in 2013.
A family reunion was held in October of 2013. Close to 100 people attended. We had a most memorable day.
