I met James and his wife a few yrs. back when I went to this cemetery to try and find where my g.gr.ma Frances Armstrong Mays was buried. My Mother had told me she was buried in this cemetery and said it is the Old Mudville Cem. and all I can find leads me to believe she was right. James and his wife drove up while I was there, they went to that church and he showed me where he believe gr.ma Frances was buried, she has no marker. He said he remembered Aunt Frances and she was a wonderful woman, he had fond memories of her. James and his wife were both very nice and I asked them about our Armstrong family tree but they knew nothing other than his gr.father Matthew was also buried in this cemetery. God Bless you James, you were a kind and Godly man in this life so I'm sure our Father in Heaven is rewarding you, we are 1st cousins twice removed, Kay.
