Classification: Query
I would like to hear from Peggy Brown or Sharon who
posted on this site earlier. (And/or anyone interested
in Matthew Bloom)
There is a grave for Matthew Bloom & his 2 grandsons
in a pasture near Minden, Louisiana in Webster Parish.
He died around 1842. His marker reads:
"HERE I LAY MY
BURDEN DOWN
CHANGED THE CROSS
INTO THE CROWN."
There is a cross just about his name.
My friend and I have become very interested in Matthew
and his two grandsons who have rested behind her home
in this pasture for one hundred and fifty plus years now.
Is anyone out there interested? We would like to know
more about this family and what happened to his wife and
the rest of his family. We just know someone out there is
probably looking for Matthew and his grandsons. I wonder
if Peggy and Sharon are interested?
Thanks,
Sherry
