I do not know what has occurred here.) Knowledge of these 2 graves were brought to Gwen's attention when in Grundy Co. They are in the middle of a cow pasture unprotected from the cows. It appears that there may have been other stones but they are no longer there. Jordan Sanders PVT 1 Tenn MTD Vols 1814-1894 Solomon Sanders PVT Continental Line Rev War 1730 1830
