Garrison Chapel Cemetery Re-Visit

We stopped at Garrison Chapel Cemetery on Easter Sunday just to take a look around.  I snapped a few photos hoping that I didn't already have them from our last trip, but most of them I did.  Below are the ones that I didn't have.  

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our first stop is at the grave of Charles J. Isom.

Born: 1834, Kentucky 
Died: September 22, 1916, Monroe County, Indiana

He was the son of Charles N. Isom (1794-1855) and Margaret A. Rice Hendricks (1819-1884).  They are both buried in Garrison Chapel Cemetery.

He had at least one brother, but he may have also had a sister:
William Nelson Ison (1842-1936) -  buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery, Greene County, Indiana.

He was married to Rhoda Gardner Isom (1839-1880).  She is listed as being buried in Arthur Cemetery in Greene County, Indiana, though I am not sure if this is correct.

They had at least one child:
Minnie Ardella Isom Hamm (1871-1944) - buried in Garrison Chapel Cemetery, Monroe County, Indiana.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Our last stop is at the grave of Nancy E. Carter.

Born: August 10, 1880
Died: March 13, 1916

Underneath her name is that of Opal Carter.

Born: June 13, 1909
Died: March 13, 1910

It looks as if there may have been a headstone photo at one time, but there is nothing there now.

I hope that you have enjoyed your walk through Garrison Chapel Cemetery, even if it was a short one.

Please let me know if you have any questions or information.
