(Fellow FAG members note:I do not know why the Vockerys referred to the Bluegrass Memorial Cemetery in their cemetery record book as the "Mt. Zion Re-interment cemetery." The Mt. Zion church has no cemetery and is some distance from the Bluegrass Memorial Cemetery where the Bluegrass Army Depot grave re-interments were made.)
