      It became necessary to MOVE graves that would be covered over by Lake Buchanan, beginning in 1931, TWO of the graves of young children of S.K. & M.L. were moved from the Old Bluffton Cem. to the New Bluffton Cem., located 8 or 9 miles west of Shaw Island, 3 miles west of present community of "New" Bluffton. Jennie is buried in an Unmarked Grave at the New Bluffton Cemetery, although cemetery records show she is buried in Lot 167 grave 2, and Mattie is buried in Lot 167 grave 1.

      Records kept by the company hired to move these graves referred to the children as MATTIE and JENNIE, with Jennie listed as an infant.

R. of Cleburn, listed as brothers, and an added note which said to notify Mrs. Hudson Hereford at Tow.
