Likely grave of Edward of Onslow found

I believe I have located the grave of 1676 Edward, his wife Mary and one other Marshbourn. The land where Edward and Mary lived in Onslow is now encompassed completely by Camp LeJeune Marine base. There is a cemetary there called Montford Point Cemetary. The graves that are located there were moved from family gravesites in the area where Camp LeJeune now sits. There are three "unknown Marshbourn" graves that were removed from the "Hicks Run" cemetary. The person who owned Edward and Mary's land right after them was named Hicks. The river that to this day is called Hicks Run, was called Marshbourns Great Branch when Edward and Mary still owned the property. I think the third Marshbourn grave may have been a son of theirs.
