Shiloh Primitive Baptist Church was the first church in Pierce County, Georgia has been used since the 1830's. | Both sets of my grandparents went here to church and are buried in the graveyard, along with many more of my relatives. |
Lewis Jackson Harris Jr. AKA Jackie. My brother. He died at age 2 and a half of spinal meningitis. Because of our parents' divorce and re-marriages, we now have 11 more siblings. | This photo is of me sitting beside Jackie's grave. And a photo of him. A photographer put them together as one photo in a frame. Something special back then. Now, it is done so much it is no big deal. |
Daniel Robert Gill and Ethel Elma Little Gill. Our maternal grandparents. | Martin T. Harris and Lelia Jane Tatum Harris. Our paternal grandparents. |

Our paternal 2nd great-grandparents. Parents of Annie Belle Davis. |
I don't know which David Cason this stone represents. I have a grandfather and his son, both in the Civil War. Probably this grave is for the son. |
Lewis and Elizabeth Mixon Thomas are my maternal 3rd great-grandparents. James is father of Lewis which makes him my 4th great-grandfather on my mother's side. |
