Coffee, Della w/o Joshua 12 Feb 1814 - 25 Dec 1844

The third is not readable but thought to be Joshua Coffee.
The fourth crypt located 20 from above is not readable.

There are 25 or more burials marked with fieldstones. One appears to be hand
engraved "Wm. Coffee" but difficult to read.

Gentry, Mason Alonzo 9 Dec 1883 - 22 June 1934*
Gentry, Vera Kate Neighbors/Nabors 13 Mar 1901 - 5 Oct 1933*
