Ransom Cemetery cleanup

In March 2001 Camp #33 members and guests undertook the cleanup of the Ransom family cemetery in southwestern Rutherford County, TN.

The cemetery contains the graves of two Confederate officers, Capt. John C. Jackson and Col. C. D. Venable.   Captain Jackson survived the war despite several severe wounds.  Col. Venable died of illness during the war while staying at the Ransom home.

What a mess!

 

Where to start?  Everyone pitches in...

Taking a break, this is hard work.

Let me at those briars!

Almost done.

One happy group.  Thanks for a job well done.
