My Great-Grandparents are Buried in the Pasture

I have been trying to get out to see the graves of my great-great-grandparents, William Henry and Elizabeth (Altman)Williams, who were buried on their land in 1891 & 1898.  I have been wanting to take a picture of the markers put there by Lee Mills several years ago. 

Each time I visit the area and plan to cross the Hackberry Creek into the Mills' pasture north of the 'crik' it has rained causing the "tubes" to be washed out and the road to be muddy.  Someday I will get over there to see the graves located so close to where I grew up even if I have to wade the creek and walk over there.  Or maybe I can take off cross country from the north and get there in a 4-wheel drive pickup (if I had one)...  

At any rate, I plan to get pictures of their gravesite.  I'm sure the weather will cooperate later in the year and I will try again.
