William Kittrell transcribed this person in his 2007 survey of this cemetery. "May, Maggie (b. Unknown - d. Unknown)." He also transcribed two infant children with the last name May.

The death Certificate for her son who is linked to her here at this cemetery lists her last name as Mayo, this could have been another married name. It could have been a typo. Records matching her with John Thomas May lists her last name as Barrow. There is a 1910 census that incorrectly was confused for Maggie and JT that named two children, Gracie and Charles, who were born before they married. That census had them living in Charlotte, NC, This is another family. A separate 1910 census (see below) named Maggie and John. They are living with his parents in Chicod.

Gravesite Details

Findagrave contributor Hardy Flanagan #48890091 was kind enough to grab aphoto. The cemetery appears to have been cemented over and around upright markers. Maggie's was covered except her name, everything else appears to be submerged under concrete.
