There is some discrepancies in where Jemima is buried.  I have or have seen documents showing her         final resting place as  Raleigh, Shelby Co, TN, and Calloway Co KY I grew up and recently moved from Raleigh and I had no luck finding hergrave. If anyone had documentation of where he lies, I would appreciate the info.

TIDBITS ABOUT JEMIMA

Jemima's father and uncle fought in the American Revolutionary War.   Two of Jemima's sisters married one of Williams's brother and one of his cousins..         In 1795 William's family started across the land with mules, horses, oxen, and all their belongings to                  explore a the new land of Kentucky  Due to the dangers of Indian attacks they were forced to stay in a station for some time.          William first settled in Franklin Co (now Owen Co) KY where two of his sons, William and Joseph lived and died.               William, Jemima with sons Benjamin, Daniel, John, and Moses and their daughters moved to western KY.
