    Hello Ann-

    My name is Jeff Kitzler- my wife, Kim, grew up on a farm in Minor Hill, TN. Recently, her parents deeded to her a portion of that farm, which contains the remnants of a small cemetary, lost in the woods and overgrowth. A couple of headstones are still in place, bearing the name "Kiddy". A search for Kiddy and Minor Hill turned up your geneaogy site- we thought that you might be interested in the attached photos- one of which is Lewis Kiddy's headstone.

    Thanks for your site- it was interesting to find some history connected with the Kiddy family!

    Best Regards

    Jeff
