3. At the opposite corner of the cemetary is a similarly styled marker for Esther Jean Morgan, date is illegible.
4. In 1920, Vannie and Bessie Phillips lived in a rented home on Kershaw-Jefferson Road in Lancaster County, SC. Vannie was a farmer. (Source: 1920 Census)
5. The 1930 Census shows that Vannie rented a home on Taxahaw Road in Lancaster County, SC. His wife's name was Carmie. Her age in 1930 is 28, and her first marriage was when she was 20. So, Vannie's wife Bessie must have died between 1920 and 1922.
