Hi Jerry,
Did you know that there copperheads in Scofield Cemetery. I stepped on one and luckily broke its back. I would rather have the chiggars.
At any rate, I have the Vests and a couple of Nicodemuses and a few questions.
First the dates:
Samuel Vest b. July 27, 1898 d. Dec.
19, 1973
Minnie M. b Aug. 23, 1900 d Sept. 4, 1976
married June 14, 1919
Robert Vest b Oct. 22, 1904 d Apr. 27,
1972
Sarah B. b Dec. 2, 1905 d May 7, 1970
married Oct. 13, 1925
William "Mose" Vest b July
4, 1931 d Feb. 14, 1998
son of Robert and Sarah
Albert Vest b Mar. 26, 1926
Martha E. b April 22, 1935
Married Mar. 9, 1952, these two aren't dead but the tombstone is already set.
Reinhart H. "Ray" Schnake b
July 6, 1909 d May 2, 1977
Betty Jane (Nicodemus) b June
25, 1909 d Dec. 31, 1991
married Oct. 21, 1930
The marriage dates were on the tombstones, too.
Now the questions:
Is Betty Jane a daughter of Harry and Rosa Nicodemus?
Is Robert Vest a brother to Sam?
Is Robert's wife Sarah B. another Nicodemus daughter?
Is Albert Vest a son of Robert Vest?
Is Vanesa Ann (Vest) Blankenship the daughter of Albert and Martha Vest?
These are the thoughts that I had because of extra information on the stones and grave placement.
