My GGGrandfather "John Comer 2 Lewis" was buried in the Old Lewis Cemetery in Southern Mo. My friend "Grover" who lives in Mo. went looking for the cemetery last Monday. He drove over 400 miles and said he was very lucky to find it. It was on a dirt road about 40 miles north of Ark. John Lewis did not have a grave marker but we know that he is buried there. The cemetery is way out in the forest. If you look for cemeteries in Mo. it is listed as The Old Lewis Cemetery. Enjoy the pictures. Keith Edwards
