Ben and I (Valeria) found Ida Bell Loveless buried next to her first husband,
A.W. Edmundson at the Confederate Cemetery on Hwy 35 North of Hwy 6.( it is on
the road with the first traffic lights after turning north (right) from Hwy 6
onto Hwy 35. Take a left at that traffic light and the cemetary is on the left
