When I was home for Thanksgiving, I  finally found a deed at the Lincoln County Courthouse  that exempted a 50 by 50 tract known as the old White burying ground from the sale of a portion of Thomas White's original farm. R.C. White, Thomas' son sold the land to a Singleton family. I have a feeling there may be more stones that are buried.  Dad is going to go back with more tools so he can check underground for more stones.
Unfortunately my Dad did not find very  much left of the cemetery, just a few scattered and broken stones.  Unfortunately there's nothing left of Thomas White's monument other than the base and that one broken chunk. The stone was made of concrete and after it fell over and broke the  weather and cows destroyed most of the pieces.  Thomas was born  April 1, 1828 and the final settlement of his estate was made in April of 1897 so I'm guessing his death occurred in late 1896. I'm almost certain that Thomas is buried between his two wives with Rhoda on his left and Sarah on the right.
