Wake Wednesday: Perfect for the season, missing cemetery, buried treasure!

Thanks to Heather Leah at WRAL for bringing this great story to our attention. 

High House (as in High House Road in Cary) and the buried treasure of Fanning Jones. Great read.

As I read this fascinating story, near the end of it I was directed to another article written for the Friends of Page-Walker Hotel in Cary. This one is equally interesting and a bit broader in scope. Fascinating if you live in Wake County. Even more so if you have Jones, Alford, Liles, Williams and other associated Cary area families in your tree. Grab a coffee or hot tea and check it out.
