Hi Bennie,my name is Anita Phifer Phillips and I live in Lubbock, Texas.My Phifer family is from Va, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Central Texas.In our Phifer cemetery near Groesbeck, Texas, there are unmarked graves and graves marked by large rocks on at the head and foot of grave sites.I believe, as many in my family do, that these are graves of black "Phifer's".As you are well aware these were most probably slaves owned by the family.I do not have any names or dates...just wanted you to know that these graves exist and are in the Phifer cemetery.Good luck on your search!Anita
