SNGF - Your Longest Gravestone Line



Here’s Randy’s challenge:

Your mission, should you decide to accept it, is to:

1) Determine what is your longest unbroken line of ancestral gravestones - how many generations can you go back in time? Do you have photographs of them?

 

No problem there!

 

Although I can list my ancestors in a line much farther back, here are the longest unbroken lines of gravestones I have.

 

Since both of my parents are still living, I have to begin with my grandparents. Namely, my paternal grandfather:



John Monroe Bean

15 Dec 1866 – 10 Apr 1954

 
my Dad at his grandfather's grave

William McHarvey Bean

26 Aug 1832 – 14 May 1890

 

Rachel Wiseman Bean

23 Apr 1790 – 7 Nov 1856

 

Joseph Wiseman

29 Mar 1759 – 27 Dec 1836

 

Isaac Wiseman

18 Aug 1738 – 3 May 1818


Thanks Randy for another great challenge!
