The Fluty Family - Part I

I will be adding further Fluty Family information as I receive it from Georganna Edmiaston Hammett of Dallas, Texas. She is the descendant of T.C. and Matilda Fluty through their daughter Georganna who married David Edmiaston. David was killed in Feb 1865 while on leave from the Civil War. Mrs. Hammett's grandfather was 16 when his father, David, was killed by bushwackers at Bennett's Bayou.

FLUTY

This stone measures "H x "W x "D.

It is located in the central section where most of the Fluty graves are grouped. Graves nearby include other Flutys, Wells, Browns and Thompsons. Her husband, T.C. Fluty's, marker is located on the right side of Matilda's if facing the entrance gate.

Currently, Matilda's headstone base has become unstable and sunken. The top portion (insciption) of the marker has rotated around to where if faces the dirt road and T.C.'s marker (Maybe SHE did that to keep her eye on him!) and needs to be straightened and reattached to the base.
