    Notes:

    Dear Mr. Brasfield,
    My name is Kimberly Gray Clark. I am Elisha's great great granddaughter. Elisha and Birdie had 1 daughter, Mary Ruth Brasfield. She married Eugene Gray. Elisha and Birdie are buried at the same cemetary my grandfather is. It isn't Pearce Chapel. It is on Hwy. 23 going toward Tremont from Smithville, in a community they lived in known as Turon. I can't remember the name of the cemetary right off hand but if you go just past Bull Mountain Rd on Hwy.23, you will see a small church on your left and just around the curve the cemetary is on the right. They are on the front right beside the drive. My father can probably tell you more than I can. His name is Gary. I hope this information helps you, if you need any information let us know and I can get it from my grandmother, Elisha's daughter.

    Sincerely,
    The Gray's of Tupelo, Mississippi
