I received an e-mail from a woman in Mississippi who is trying to locate information about G.W. and J.J. Mickell. If you can help, please post a comment below.
I am Ann of Covington County, Ms. and helped survey the cemeteries of Covington County. I read a most interesting book written by T. Shuck Powell, a baptist minister, who rode the circuit of Bethany Salem, Williamsburg and Leaf River Baptist Churches in this area in the early 1880's. He mentioned a Mickell Cemetery which he describes as being on a high hill one mile from the Robinson's overlooking Hooker's Hollow. He participated in a burial of one of this family and mentioned, G. W. and J. J. Mickell. I have never seen it in the cemetery books. Do you have any information about this?
