Subject: Original name of Cemetery

What a wonderful job it is to see this site. Since so many of my ancestors are buried here starting with Samuel Thompson, (and the McCleary's on my Mom's side of the tree) I was wondering if it was ever called the Thompson Cemetery as I recall someone saying the land was donated by the Thompson's.

Thank you for doing this. It is a blessing to most genealogists and we appreciate all your efforts.

This is a very old cemetery,and believe that the last burials were in the 1960's, but I have a lot of ancestors, plus my grandmother buried here. You have done a fantastic job in taking pictures.Myself I dabble with genealogy, and I am sure it is helpful to a lot of people that have moved away that too, are in genealogy. Thank you so much for your hobby.
