In
the Fiddletown
cemetery, in the older upper part, there are the
graves of the YATES family. There are no markers for two of the Yates
children. To the
right of E.R. and Abigail lay the graves of two of their children who
died young. They
are: girl child, which is Louisa Virginia Yates and boy child, Edward
Randolph Yates 3rd.
Next to them are J. H and R. E. Yates. The children's graves are
unmarked, but this
information has been in our family for several years. I recently went
to the graves, and
saw the children had no headstones. It may already be recorded in some
county records, but
if not, this may help you and your records or other decendents of the
YATES family who are
doing research too. If you have any questions, please feel free to get
in touch with me.
