The Oliver Family Cemetary in Lyon County, Kentucky

The graveyard is taken care of by family members.  Each year there is an Annual Grave Cleaning.  This also serves as an impromptu family reunion of sorts.

In the upper left you can see my grandparents' graves.  In the foreground are Drurey Earnest Oliver and his wife Grace.  Drurey Earnest was the son of Drurey Oliver and Pernicia Fowler, making Lowery and him brothers.

Lowery Coleman Oliver has his name misspelled on his tombstone.  He could not read or write, so Daisy just assumed that his name was Laurie.  This assumption was passed along to the children and when he died, this was the name they used.

This is the stone of Pernicia Frances Fowler, my great-grandmother.
