From: Deborah Coggins Gammon, August 2000:

I just want to give you the dates on Alta Coggin, daughter of Adelia Culpepper and L. P. Coggin. I found her. It was rather like devine intervention. My Aunt Irene had told me that she was buried in Elm City with others in the family, but I walked Cedar Grove for an hour in June with no success. I returned in July and pulled through the arch at Cedar Grove, there was a graveside service going on. I pulled over to wait. I couldn't disturb them. I got out of my car to rest and walked over and sat on a gravestone-Alta C. Winstead. There she was with her husband, 2 sons and his parents. Goosebumps!!! Well, she was born Alta Lee Coggin, April 21, 1891, died July 30, 1965. John C. Winstead b. May 29, 1894, d. Nov. 2, 1973. Sons, James Edward Winstead b. July 8, 1921 d.
