There are many, many more stones in this cemetery. We did not catalogue any more than listed, as these were of interest to our research. Eliza, wife of H. Jaggers, is the daughter of William & Rachel (Wallis) Manly -- my Great Great Grandfather. Harrison Jaggers was the last landowner of the Manly Homestead, that I know of. The Norris family moved along with my Manly line from South Carolina to southeastern Indiana about 1800 (known as the "Carolina Colony") and finally here, near Newport, Indiana, about 1820's. Robert Norris married Martha Nickels and William Manly married Elizabeth Nickels, sisters and daughters of William & Elizabeth Nickels, also one of the Carolina Colony. Robert Norris later married Rachel (Wallis) Manly, widow of William Manly, and helped raise the 6 Manly children -- Eliza being one of these children.
