Albert K. Clopton

Albert K. Clopton
December 14, 1877 - May 12, 1879

Albert's grave is located in the historic Linwood Cemetery, in my hometown of Columbus, GA. His is just one of the many beautiful headstones you will discover at Linwood. Thankfully, his parents [or someone] marked his brief time on earth. So many times children were born and died in a time period where records may not exist outside of the family bible. Often times their headstone may be the only record of their life.

What was his middle name? What dreams did his parents have for him. Say his name out loud and remember Albert today.
