| Notes |
- "Old Kinser cemetery" where he and others were buried is on
County Road #102. Go to Right after left to Lost Sea on "Old
Athens Road" about 4-5 miles. St. Mary's Methodist sign on
left. Gate around graveyard. Looks much like church at Unitia,
which explains why for years I thought there was only one
cemetery with Kinsers: I relied on my childhood memory of the
visual effect of the location.People have expressed concern
that the little church is in trouble and may have to give it up
and who would care for the cemetery?
From: ekinzer/@/auburn.campus.mci.net (Earl T. Kinzer
Jr.) To: DorLight/@/aol.com Hi Doris, I realized I forgot to
mention that I found in a listing of members of the Confederate
army the following: Kinzer, Francis M., TN Cav. 2nd Bn.
(Biffle's) Co. D. It was spelled with a z, but he is probably
yours.
(This is incorrect. Marion Francis Kinzer was
from the middle Tennessee Kinzer family.)[:UND][:ITAL]
During The Civil War Francis Marion Kinser was one of several
men who dug bat guano out of the Cave now known as the Lost Sea
and used it to make saltpeter used in making gunpowder for the
Confederacy.

Another Francis Marion Kinzer, distant cousin, was in 2nd TN
Cavalry Div which fought at battle of Chickamauga as
Confederate. St. Mary's cemetery has "jacob Francis, 12 May
1838 to 11 Feb 1891 a sonof F. M. and S. J." The initials fit
Francis Marion and Sarah Jane, but the date is only one of a
sibling. 1860 census F. M. Kinser on p 77 with John, Jacob,
while p 78 had Isaac, another Jacob, and John, Sr. In 1870 he
was 33 and lived with wife Sarah, James, Mary, Jeff Davis,
John, William, Jacob. See http://home.fuse.net/damathew/ for
story of Lick Creek Bridge burning.
