Site # 1 Brice Woods
**records have been found that could point
to this fella having been the Brice Woods
that fought in various places...
""And also in the War of 1812""
This could be a very Historical
Find for Chatham~Kent history.
Whether these stones were found some years
ago & not recorded, this we do not know...
but today we find this of great interest to
possibly add to the celebrations of the
anniversary years of the War of 1812..

John Skakel
One of the minds behind
this website, is also the best
Chatham Kent Cemetery
Restoration Volunteer, that the
volunteer group has.
He has found many lost grave sites
and continues on day after day
trying to locate and find history
to share on this site.
He gathers his tools to leave another
site with great information to share
with others on this day.Jul 04, 2013

Site # 1
The partial grave stone
from Site # 2 was moved
to Site # 1 and is a perfect
match for the top of it, which
was already lying in site # 1.
Christine brushes it off, to
prepare for photos of the two
pieces after they have been
reunited.
