BAILEY
CEMETERY, MT JOY, MAURY COUNTY TENNESSEE
The Fractured stone of L. Z. Beckum. It will be tough to repair this one, but
can be done if all
the parts are there. It is
fractured
in several places. The many pieces are in danger of being
scattered and lost or
sinking out of
sight below the ground.
Beckum, L. Z., 21 Dec 1855 - 1 Feb 1883 "Son of R. G. & H. Beckum" (son of R. G. Beckum
and Hulda Hay) Note: Most likely this is the couple's son Alonzo who lived in the Mt. Joy area.
The L and Z can be made out in the name and the tombstone could have had Alonzo had one time.
He was married to Mary Elnora Williams, daughter of Wiley B. Williams and Mary Arington.
Stone on the ground and broken.
