A blog about random thoughts that pop into my head. Mostly it will concern my genealogy findings for my family and my brother-in-law's family. Some of my family names are: Akins, Burnet, Collins, Domelle, Harrison, Ide, Kirby, Kleylein, Pawlak, Rockwell, and Royce.

Tombstone Tuesday - John Francis Mix
My Great Uncle John Francis Mix died in 1981. I've posted his obituary in a past entry (here) and recently I scanned this picture taken on May 26, 1995 of his gravestone.
My Mom always referred to him as Uncle Johnny so that's what I've always called him during my research. I have a vague memory of meeting him before he died, but it's not corroborated my the memories of my Mom or Aunt. So much for memory!!! :-)
He's buried in Hector Union Cemetery, in Burdett, Schuyler County NY.
