Rita,
I found some information that I thought might be related to your family.In reading the history of the Charlesboro Baptist Church, I read that at the organization of the church in 1890, (worshipers had met for 10 years before that in homes), The Ecclesiastical Coucil was composed of a Rev. John S. Croxton, Rev. John Faile, Rev. Nathan Faile among others. Rev. Croxton was also elected Moderator of the meeting.Could this be an ancestor of yours? I found it very interesting.
(This first church building was destroyed by a tornado in 1936.)
Wish I had known earlier that you were going to be visiting Charlesboro.My brother lives less than 1/2 mile from the cemetery and he would have loved to have met you.He has been into genealogy for years.In fact, when I told him you were coming to the cemetery, he asked why I didn't tell you to visit him.I told him that I didn't learn about it in time.(It was the night before you were leaving that I got your message.)Hope you had a very successful visit and a safe trip.
Ann
