from Nancy:
It's my husband who's G.G.G Grandfather was George Compton who was married to Sarah Duke. Nancy (their daughter) was married to Thomas Finnell. They are buried on their farm along with their son Charles and his son. We believe their slaves that came with them from Va are also buried on the same property. We walked the cemetery and have pictures of the stones. They are in poor shape and broken. The owner of the property didn't know they were back there.
