Thanks for responding. I have good records on the Mead's and Holstons. I firmly believe that Anna Holston the wife of Waller Holston and the daughter of Chauncey and Elizabeth Mead is in that grave. The A. Holston is Abram Holston, not Andrew Holston. Abram Holston lived in Jones County moving to Taylor County before 1880. The child Herman is Abram's son, Flora Stevenson is Abram's daughter, Jesse Davis is the child of his daughter Maryette and his granddaughter, Anna Holston is his sister-in-law. I thought that the Emma Holston in the grave was a niece, but I'm not positive about that as that grave was used after our Holstons moved to Taylor County. WPA records for Anna Holston show that she died 11/26/1876. Family records show 1876. Anna Holston Johnson is said to have died 11/26/1886. If Anna H Johnson is related, I have not found the connection. I wish I could get a picture of those stones.
