    Note: Not a complete survey of the cemeteries: needs to be compared with Elsberry and other subsequent cemetery surveys. Because it was done so early, it did located a number of stones that have subsequently disappeared. There appear to be comparatively few misreadings or typos. The following limitations were stated in the preface:
    "In compiling this book, every tombstone of adults in Boone County was copied where the _birth_ date was prior to 1860. Fifty-two churches and cemeteries are included and fifty-nine old family burying grounds are copied."
    Thus, it omitted graves of children, and must be supplemented for purposes of family reconstitution.
    The compilers noted that in many Boone County cemeteries, there were numerous old graves with no tombstones.
    The book is not a complete listing of all known county cemeteries.

    NOTE: John Inman's sister Joanna Inman m Nathaniel Palmer, son of George Palmer and Bethia Mowry. There is a Jonathan Palmer whose daughter Sarah m a Bonham. Sarah had a child Jonathan Bonham. Sarah and Jonathan were both mentioned in the will of Jonathan Palmer in Will Book F pg 443 dated 1802 according to index to Wills of Loudoun Co, Virginia by Louisa Hutchison.

    NOTE: (from Ken Milano (kmilano@libertynet.org)
    My Palmer was a long time member of Christ Church. The bell there was
    suppose to have been first rung when his wife Tomasine died. I don't know
    the Bonham's. Taggert is a name I am vaguely familiar with. There is a
    small street in Fishtown named Taggert, they had some property up here in
    earlier days.

    Your Palmer's were probably the Quaker Palmer's, descendents of William
    Palmer (& Elizabeth, I think). Don't know this for sure, but there were
    other early Palmer's who were Quaker, my Anthony Palmer was always of the
    Church of England (here and in Barbados).
    A lot of the leading merchants of Philadelphia's early days were ex-Barbadians (your Jones, the Claypoole's, Carpenter, Palmer, etc).

    While trying to place my Jones in one of the families that bought land in the early 1800's in Sangamon County I noticed that there appear to have been at least two family groups. William, Alexander, James, Robert and Thomas all bought in a block between 1825 and 1837. Then there is another group 2 sections north of them with Levi, James, Reuben, Edward and Rial with Andrew not too far away. Henry had a chunk to the north of that section. Claiborne and Richard lived near each other, several miles from the other Joneses. Mabra lived near the southern edge of that section, about 3 miles from Enoch. Eli lived farther west, about 7 miles away. Samuel bought land slightly later farther east. Don't know it this helps anyone
