I have just received word that the Hanover Memorial Park working with/under direction of Todd Rogers, has asked for assistance from certain individuals with the wording/inscription on a generic/anonymous monument to be placed at the Hanover Memorial Park Cemetery at the new location of the graves of those removed from Pebble Creek.
Now, the interesting things here are these...
1. How will they know what (sur)names to inscribe when they have not determined "officially" if those removed were from the Sydnor family cemetery or the slave/Green cemetery?
2. How will they know unless they remove the other cemetery (as required by the court order) and
do research on those remains?
3. How can they place a monument when not all remains have yet been removed as required by the court order.
4. Why hasn't Todd Rogers or Hanover Memorial Park made any contact with any family members or persons involved in this matter when they have contact information?
As I understand it, they are trying to keep this matter "hush hush", but I have no intentions of doing so. They want some 'generic' monument placed there? That is simply wrong!
