Tombstone Tuesday~John H. Brown Lost Tomb

I’m looking for some help from any and all readers available, living in, near or around Lauderdale County, Mississippi.

John H. Brown died 14 September 1855 in Lauderdale County, Mississippi and was buried there in the County.

His Estate was probated (Filebox 31,  No 253) and within the estate folder there are several mentions of his tomb. I have provided a copy of one of those  documents.



It reads:
Oct. 12, 1858                   Estate of John H. Brown Deased to
                                                                        Henry Brown, Jr.
to Erecting & Building over Decesd
grave a Brick Tomb                                   $35.00

This is  very clear – the intent here was to put a Brick Covering over the grave of John H. Brown so that it would last in perpetuity.

If these actions were carried out; the tomb should be in existence today.  So the question is: Where is John H. Brown Tomb?

If you have any suggestions or ideas please contact me at this e-mail (click).
