On This Day: October 25

1807: My paternal 2nd great-grandfather Ransom Spurlock was born probably in Washington County, Georgia. His parents are unknown. He died 2 October 1896 and is buried at Hurricane Cemetery, Claiborne Parish, Louisiana.

The tombstone originally placed at Ransom's grave was badly damaged when I visited there in 2000. I believe it was replaced by my cousin, Ernest Spurlock, a year or two later.
