Tombstone Transcriptions written especially for the genealogist!

These are the first to begin reprinting Dolores Autry’s original Linwood Cemetery of Columbus, Muscogee Co., Georgia tombstone transcription. Volume 1 covers Sections A & B and Vol. 2 covers Sections C-G. In addition to the original transcriptions,  additional information taken from legal records (i.e. Census, Wills, Deeds, Obituaries and Military Records) as well as original genealogical research have been added.  Hopefully, Volume 3 will be completed by this summer. (Map for Sections)

Mrs. Autry's family and the authors, Lea L. Dowd and the late Carol Johnson, have generously donated all proceeds from the sales of these books to the Historic Linwood Foundation for further restoration projects.

An Index to names in each volume may
be found on each Volume's preview.
