Thanking Wayne Township (Fayette County, Ohio) Trustee, Mr. Jim Cooper

Thanking Mr. Jim Cooper, Wayne Township Trustee in Fayette County, Ohio for his help in obtaining a replacement veteran's flag holder for my collateral line ancestor, Private John Limes of Good Hope, Ohio. 

Jim shared a photograph he took of John Limes' gravesite with the GAR flag holder and the new flags.  John Limes also has a footstone.  He served in the 63rd OVI - Company "E" during the Civil War.  His wife, Sarah Ann Cory, was also buried on the same lot.  Her name reportedly appears on the same stone below and is no longer visible.  She does not have her own separate gravestone.  Her parents are buried nearby, James and Rebecca (Sperry) Cory.

Jim is doing a fine job with his work at the Good Hope Cemetery.  I appreciate so much all of his efforts on my behalf with caring for my ancestors' gravesites, and for his ensuring that the cemetery grounds are in good condition.

Sharing some photographs taken on July 21, 2012 at the Good Hope Cemetery in Wayne Township, Fayette County, Ohio:

Good Hope Cemetery has always appeared well maintained whenever I have visited it.  

The cemetery sections are laid out well and are easily identifiable with large section markers.  

 The Fayette County Genealogical Society has published a wonderful tombstone inscription book for Wayne Township.

(Wayne and Marion Townships are together in one book.)

Published in 2000 by Charles R. Gossett and Peggy Gilmore (now deceased). 

The Fayette County Genealogical Society members have done an outstanding job of documenting burials in their county. They have published all of their transcriptions by township name in books that can be purchased through the FCGS. Included when possible, are previous older readings that may offer transcriptions of stones no longer visible or readable.
