Sherry,

I too have family in that cemetery. My Great Grandfather is Aden Mizell, "1883-1930" on his marker though census data has him born earlier than that. His wife is beside him. Her marker reads "Renvy E. Mizells wife of A.E. Mizells Sept 6 1880-June 25 1916." Beside them on the same row are two children. There are no other graves on that row.

I have heard rumors of a dispute involving the marriage of Aden's oldest daughter Lottie (born 1898) being the cause of our branch of "Mizells" moving away and not knowing about the other families whose relatives are in that cemetary. I am originally from Summerville.

I have had the most luck going through the census of the county page by page through my account with ancestry.com and looking for anything that could sound like "Mizell". With my line, each census has a different spelling of the last name of the same family which made looking in search engines impossible.

If there is any way I can assist you, please let me know. I'd really like to figure out how everyone in the cemetery is connected.

Good Luck,

Lori Mazell Jones
