Cheryl,
Thanks for the file. I haven't had much time to go through it all, but I already found one missing link. I just love that... And I would just LOVE to see the transcripts of the letters, etc. How fascinating!
30,000 ancestors! Wow. When did you start this project?
I thought there might be a photo of the Beecher/Chatfield house on the link below, but there isn't. It's a neat site though, and this is a good pic of the Brookside Cemetery. There's some interesting sights at this link.

I photographed Brookside Cem. on my last trip, so if you are interested in any of those photo's, let me know. I'll be sure to take a photo of the Beecher/Chatfield house on my next trip that you will be able to use any way you want. The attached is scanned from the book Early Houses of Oxford. All the Cem. photos are mine and you are free to use and share as you please. One day I'll get all this together and create an informative web site about Oxford's past.
I also am attaching 3 pic's of a headstone at St. Peter's. One photo of the entire stone, then two close-ups of the inscriptions. This should confirm the death date of Horace below. I'll let you know anytime I stumble across anything that will clear up stuff like this.
