FORTSON SPRINGS
CEMETERY
The people who transcribed this cemetery were shown the place by Mr. Kennedy and it is near Fortson Springs. He told them that the father of James E. Fortson was buried here and that Mr. Fortson had requested that a cedar fence be built around his grave. It was done. Some of the family remembered the fence.
