Notes for JACOB BAILEY: When I checked cemetery records I found that Jacob Bailey's death date is right, but the others listed are burial dates. Jacob was buried on June 8 so the others should be 2 or 3 days later than the death dates. All those listed above were buried in lots owned by Gravner Bailey.
