Connie Coffey Dorsey was making a visit to the Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery in Lexington, VA when she found these headstones. Knowing that I collect headstone photos for the Edward Coffey Project, she send these and a couple of others a few days ago. James Francis Coffey was a son of Walton Wilmuth and Lula Elizabeth McCormick Coffey. I know of only one other child of in that family: Ruth E., born c1921.
Going backwards, Walton descends from Edward through: William and Martha Jane Davis Coffey; William Montebello and Cynthia T. Wood Coffey; William W and Sarah Jane Coffey Coffey. Sarah descends from Edward via Reuben G. and Nancy Giles Coffey. Reuben G. descends from Edward through Edmond Stewart and Nancy Barnett Coffey
These stones mark the graves of James Francis' grandparents and are also found in the Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery.
