Note: From gen forum: Hello, Tomlinson researchers. Let me tell you first of all that I have no connection to your family. A few days ago, while wandering through Curryville Baptist Church Cemetery searching for my own family, I stumbled upon a partially buried, broken headstone. There was another broken stone beside it, and I really had to search for the second one. It was totally underground, except for a corner. As they were both very old, I went back today with my digital camera, and if you would like a scan of these pictures, e-mail me and I will be happy to send them to you.

The 2 broken and buried stones were:
Grove TOMLINSON b-9 Feb 1790 d-1 June 1860
Lydia A. TOMLINSON b-19 Sept 1799 d-21 Feb 1880

Found reference in "Family Search.org":
Lydia Almedia McClelland Johnson
b. - Sept 19, 1799 Iredell, NC
d. - Feb 24, 1880 in Gordon, GA
Parents, Asa and Sally Johnson

Note: Her full name and birth date came from Bessie Johnson's date book.

Note: Thanks to James Riley, Jr. for information on this line.
