Notes


Moses Babb is indeed buried there on the Hommel lot of Greenwood Cemetery...his is on the left back row w/Legion flag on it & the marker where it was marked as Civil War. What I meant is that in looking thru the cemetery record it shows an addition grave as "M. Babb" & as far as I can figure out that is grave of my great grandfather John Hommel...will have to look at the records again but busy at moment. Noticed that when they sent the records from Greenwood Library also. The tall old family marker shows names of great Grandma Mary (Webber) Hommel Babb on it & on one side shows lst husb. John Hommel & on other side Moses Babb. She is buried between the two of them, w/Moses Babb on s. side & then she & John Hommel have matching stones which show MOTHER on hers & FATHER on his.  Contributed by Norma Warner Telford.
