"This particular cemetery started in brambles . . . Robert Montgomery came with his father. Frances Montgomery, in 1805, there were 72 in their party including slaves. Frances bought 2000 acres in Joppa and Ozark. He gave all of his children property and slaves. This was Robert's part. Robert set the ground aside for this cemetery. My family has cared for it through the generations. " - WILLIAM GIMBEL Comments | Permalink
