Lou Allen Green - Grave


This is Roger Neal with Lou Allen Green's marker.He says there are several graves back there but this is the only marker.

This is the grave I have been searching for! So nice to see a photo and know that it exists! I have faith that I will eventually find it. Thanks a million to Roger for posting it so that all the other Green family researchers are able to see it!

This photo came from Mitzi Soward, another Green descendant in Tenn.
Jay (William Jasper) Green and Louisa Stone are the ones on the left in this photo, Mitzi's Great Grandparents. Louisa's mother Cathy Stone is sitting on the porch (you have to look close). According to Mitzi, some of this photo has been cut off. A man with a wagon and a team of mules has been cut off the right side of the photo.
