Napoleon "Poleon",I recall being pronounced by local old timers as; "Pawlyin" was the son of Lindsey "L.L." and Sarah A "Sally" (Wilson) Yowell and the husband of Martha (Brown) Yowell. Napoleon was to be buried in Yowell cem. #2 across Little Piney river but it was raging at his death, so rather than haul his body all the way across to a bridge, he was buried on his old farm. The cemetery is on the present Dr. Steve Atkisson farm, (Greenwood Farm) six miles south of Newburg on Hwy. T
