    I have never found out when or where my grandfathers father died and was buried.
    HIs name was CRAVEN FAIRCHILD(s) born april 1858 in PERRY COUNTY MISSISSIPPI. married EVA m. BROOME 6 Dec 1884 her death is also a mustery. She is supposed to have outlived her husband. Craven & Eva were last in the 1910 Cencus with thier children Alma E. Fairchild born about 1901
    Orrin O. Fairchild born about 1903
    Eric L. Fairchild (my grandfather) birn 11 april 1899
    His parents were ABERAHAM LUNDY FAIRCHILD & Levinia MCLEMORE. Aberaham died in 1897 and Lavinia died after 1900 She is not in the 1910 Cencus as far as I have seen.
    I would very much appreciate any information as to the deaths and burial places of Eva & Craven Fairchild.
    Cravens brother Hiram Fairchild and his wife Hattie Clark Fairchild are Buried in Brookhaven, Lincoln MS.
    This is a possibility but I have no way of being sure.
    Other possibilitys are Jones, Copiah, Perry, Lincoln, Countys.
    Thank You very Much
