Carol McCoy writes: "I have the listing for the Jones Chapel Cemetery for my Nixon family
and my aunt has asked me to include her husband also:{my grandmother had
three names, maiden name Repass}
Mary Elizebeth Lee Repass Nixon b.May 8,1869 d. June 20,1957
Albert Sidney Nixon b. 1870 d. Jan. 18, 1959
Charles Sidney Nixon b. Mar. 5,1897 d. May 4, 1953
Flora Elizebeth Nixon b. Apr.26.1889 d. July7, 1923
My uncle is :
James Harry Wingo Sr., s/o Geo.B. and Mae Belle {Grinstead} Wingo
b.Oct.25,1909 d.June 18,1972
Interesting side note on Mae Belle Wingo: she was a member of the Cedar
Bluff United Methodist Church, the old church burnt on Feb.12, 1955 ,
the same day she died, her funeral was held in the Presbyterian Church
in Cedar Bluff. I'll never forget that day, we only lived two doors
down and the Wingo family right across the road, the pump trucks froze
up and they had no choice except to let the church burn to the
ground. They had a bucket brigade from the creek to keep the old town
hall and our home from burning." |
