18 Years Ago: Cyndia Hopkins

Every genealogist has someone (or several someones) that they wish they had talked to about the family history before it was too late. Cindy is one of mine. I knew Cindy all my life. She was still living when I became interested in genealogy, but it was still too late because of her health by that time.
Cindy married Grant Saylor on 8 May 1920 in Bell County, Kentucky. Cindy was buried beside Grant (who died in 1984) in Resthaven Cemetery, Loyall, Harlan County, Kentucky.
