Denise wrote: ..."Valerie, the farm is about 5 or 6 miles south of the main highway (on State Route 1003) about 6 miles east of Somerset. The road is a gorgeous, narrow country lane winding and rolling through the hilly countryside. It was a dirt lane until fairly recently, perhaps the last 4 years or so. Coming around a sharp right hand bend up up a steep hill from a major creek (name unknown ... our "guiding angel" [loose translation] said "Buck" creek), the Randall Chapel is on the right. It is a white frame building, about 30' x 40' with a steeple. My guess is that this is/was the family chapel where a minister would come for services for the family and other local residents. About a half a mile past the Chapel around a sharp left hand bend is the cemetery. The location is on a small hillock surrounded by rolling land. Perhaps 150 yards from the road, there is a large oak tree, surrounded by a fading metal fence and some 20 to 30 stones. It is the classic family cemetary, on the family farm, cared for and remembered by family. We parked the bike at the gate, and walked across the pasture to open the second gate to the cemetary. Within seconds we found the stones that mean so much to you. All four, Randels and Phelps, and they're side by side. Nancy and Eleanore are beside each other, one facing East and the other West. The husbands flank the women. One of the markers was Millard Parkey's, deceased relatively recently, so the Parkey name is prominent, and tied now to the Randall Chapel and Phelps names. His wife hasn't joined him just yet. We took a picture of that stone for you too and of the views around the cemetery. It was very exciting and we really had fun finding your people for you. The day was warm and heavy gray with a low cloud cover that threatened rain. But as we boarded the bike and began to ride back to the main highway, the clouds broke for a moment and sun shone on that little valley in the hills and it was so pretty." --Denise M.o.o.r.e, 26 Sep 1998 |
