Hi Barbara,

The FEAR's I found at Fosterville were published on the Web, and =
confirmed some of the information supplied to me by my cousin (Parry =
Edwards).  I would be gratefull for anything you turn up.  Perhaps I can =
do the same for you (anyone), if you have interest in South Wales UK.

  Since I live about an hour's drive from Fosterville Cemetery, and =
since yesterday was a beautiful sunny day, my husband and I drove to =
Fosterville.  It's in Cayuga County on Fosterville Road, near the town =
of Aurelius.  Unfortunately, the cemetery is in horrible condition.  If =
I had to guess, it has about 200-300 tombstones, but I will check when I =
have the opportunity at the Cayuga County Historian's Office to see if =
they have any records for it.  The cemetery is mowed, but that's about =
all I can say for it.  There is a large tree that has fallen across the =
grass in the middle of the cemetery that has not been taken out of =
there, even though it is possibly covering a couple of stones.  There =
are many broken and tipped over stones, I think many in that condition =
because of pure vandalism.  There was one granite stone in excellent =
condition for FEAR.  I found it just before we left the cemetery and did =
not write down the names and dates on it, but there were three people =
memoralized on it.  I took a photograph, and when I get it back in about =
two weeks, I will post the information on this site for anyone =
interested in the FEAR family who settled in Cayuga County.  Barbara =
(interested in Coombe, Thomas, Evans) of Wedmore and NY state.
