*UPDATED NOTE: memorials posted for Ora Elizabeth Rogers & Harry Earl Rogers with notations that their obituaries indicate that they were buried in Alabama. Paula Reddy has informed me that they have removed the double gravestone and moved it to Alabama.
*Original Note: There is a gravestone in the Violet Hill Cemetery for Harry E. & Ora E. Rogers with only birth years inscribed. It was obviously placed there at some time as a "pre-need" gravestone; however, from their obituaries, it becomes apparent that they were buried elsewhere. Her parents are buried in the Violet Hill Cemetery.
