Hi everyone.

My name is Paul Minshew. My Minshew ancestors were in eastern NC prior to the Revolutionary War and some of their descendants who stayed in the state after mine migrated west continue to live in Wayne, Wilson, Nash, & Johnston Counties today. Naturally, a number of their parents, grandparents and so on died in your county over the years and are buried in some of the cemeteries in the area. I know of about 45, but not where all of them are interred.

I'm am trying to locate anyone who does photography and might be able to send me headstone pictures for the ones I do know the locations for, in particular the Eureka, Fremont and Kenly cemeteries, in addition to a number of smaller ones nearby. Supposedly, there's also a Minshew family cemetery near Eureka and/or Faro that has a few.

If you know of anyone who does such a thing, I would greatly appreciate it if you could pass along my contact info to them and have them get in touch with me. I can get them all the deatils.

Kindest regards,

Paul
