  General Notes:



Melissa was married after the census in 1870 and prior to 1873. She was the mother of 9 children prior to her death in 1898 at age 43.

Burial:
(Originally buried in small Barnhill Family cemetery on private land located behind the Merle McKoy place. Also referred to as the old Dick Lewis place.) The woods had grown up around the graves. The stones had fallen over. The stones were moved to the Woodcock Cemetery (I assume for safe keeping and to at least preserve a record of their burials).
