This Cemetery is located on part of the old James McKissick North Carolina Land Grant that was later purchased by George Waite, who sold a part of it to W. W. Gill.
The Alexander & Mary Gill monuments could be the very old type that perished. I do not believe their inscription were on the back side of the tall family monument. See #2316.
Here is my assessment of what was found on this monument: East side: In memory of the W.W. Gill Family  |   West Side:  (Nothing-Can be seen on a blow up of Photo #2316, not visible on this site).  | North Side:  We all do fade as a leaf.
South Side:  (An epithet which I missed photographing,  it is long & of a poetic nature. Slightly visible in #2305). Maybe their tombstone is not here and they are interred in unmarked graves or maybe their tombstone fell and sunk into the ground. The third possibility is that their tombstone and grave are located somewhere else on their place. The third possibility is discounted by the knowledge that this graveyard was founded at least as early as 1849 when the child Martha died. This is before Alexander and Mary died.
