Roving stone
Alvin Frady, founder of the Jackson County Cemetery Society, is taking the cornerstone from the old County Home on a fund-raising tour. The stone, which was placed in 1924, will be available occasionally for citizens to view at Harold's Supermarket and at other locations including Wal-Mart during coming weeks. Those interested can make a donation to the society while viewing the stone. The society is seeking donations to help raise an estimated $5,000 needed to restore the County Home Cemetery. The group plans to locate and mark all the graves at the cemetery and build a trail around the grounds, Frady said. For more information, contact Frady at 586–0809. – Herald photo by Derek Hodges
