Inscription

I checked the Rose Hill Cemetery records for Mr. & Mrs. Bryan. It's a little odd - Needham Bryan isn't listed as being buried in this cemetery per the records, but Sarah is listed as "Mrs. N. R. Bryan" and is buried in a very small lot with 1 other burial that is listed as "non-identified". Since the lot was only designed for two burials, I'm guessing that Needham is the "non-identified" and was simply not entered in the internment records for some reason. (I've run across this a couple of times before - Rose Hill has thousands of burials and every once in a while I find one that was not documented in error). But I wanted to let you know in case you ever find info that he may be buried elsewhere. Neither of the two graves are marked, but I will take a photo of them for you tomorrow so you can see what the lot looks like.
