First of all, thanks for this terrific site! Any chance of a Part 3 for the Old Cemetery, Cynthiana? I’m hoping for birth and death dates for Joseph Wiglesworth, h/o Evalina, buried there in 1861. He preceded her in death.
Jean, I do have a photo of Mrs. Evelina Wiglesworth’s gravestone, born August 19, 1801, died April 14, 1861, but not her husband, Joseph Wiglesworth. Many of the stones in this cemetery have been damaged through the years.
