Ruth Holland Thurman Aunt Ruth is buried in Geneva County. I need to take mother to help me find her gravesite. Faye was Aunt Ruth's only daughter and she passed away the spring of 2011.
 

                                                        Aunt Naomi is buried in Big Creek.


Louise was burried in New York State close to her home in Buffalo.
Bertha Holland
Ruby Lee Holland

Aunt Ruby and Aunt Bertha's graves are under an oak tree and they are covered with acorns and sticks. The day we were there the wind chill was about 10 so we didn't stay long. I am going back soon to get that moss off the stone and pick up the sticks and take some flowers for all of them.

Grandpa and Granny









The picture of Granny and Grandpa was taken in 1958. The one of Grandpa above I am guessing in the mid to late 40's.


This is Morgan and Emma Holland's graves in Ramer Church Cemetery State Line Road Cottonwood, Al. They were my paternal great grandparents, my Dad's Grandparents.

Howdy! I am Jared from Cottonwood Al. I guess you could say that I am trying to do a little family research. Lucius Holland was my great grandmother's (Linnie Holland Halstead)daddy. Linnie married Harley Halstead Sr. and had 6 children. The oldest of her children, James LeaDon Halsead was my mothers daddy. I don't mean to be nosy but who exactly are you kin to?
