  • Map 1827 lands (1047 KB)
    Shiloh was Peter's land and Faith was Jesses land. While I stood in the center of that Stokes Carter Cemetery shown on the map, I had no idea about the churches or I would have looked for them or some sign that our ancestors were there. Peter Bozeman, his wife Sarah, their son William Henry, all could be buried at one of those places, which could now be covered in woods.
