 Subj: Freemans at Steep Hollow
  Thanks for the information on the Freemans. As I noted on the entry, Polk's grave is lost. The cemetery had no record of it but his grandson, Ernest Freeman, and his wife have been neighbors of my family here in Steep Hollow for several years. Mr. Ernie died a few years back but his widow still lives here. When she found out that I was doing work on the cemetery she told me that the family said that he was buried here. I did a search and found the obit to prove it.
  I have linked the ones you sent. Thanks again.
