Patty, my Nehemiah originated lived life long in GA as best as we can determine. He and his family were original members of the Wrightsboro Quaker Congregation in the Wilkes/Columbia Cos. area. Not known to have ever resided in Kentucky. Good Luck!!

Nehemiah Dunn's grave is in a clearing of tall pines trees. It is also now the private cemetery of the current owner, descendants of the Hungerford family. Her parents and other family members are buried there as well as Nehemiah. There is a tree growing inside the big large carved stone fence. His slaves are buried all around him. Hehemiah's wife Mary (Murphy) Dunn was not seen buried with Nehemiah; She outlived Nehemiah, and I don't know where she is buried, but no evidence was seen here at this burial ground. This cemetery is located north of Gray, in a rural area of Jones County, Georgia: From the railroad intersection in Gray, travel north on GA Hwy 11 about 3.2 miles to Hungerford Road, and turn right. Travel about 5.2 miles to Shoal Creek Road and turn left. Immediately on your right is a well kept clearing surrounded by tall hardwood and pine trees. This is the burial site. The stone wall enclosed area is visible from the road. GPS is 33.11942, -83.53085 Hope it helps. Rich Dohm.
