Note from above:

Adam Cloninger,Jr., along with his 2nd wife, Elizabeth, were found in
June 1985 in an old Cloninger-Long cemetery just north of Dallas, NC,
off Hwy.321 about 1/2 mile.  Old gravesite was found by Terry Waldrop
family.  Witnesses when placed in Cloninger-Derr Cemetery in July 1985
were:  Paul E. & Rean C. Rhyne, Ray & Becky Rhyne Hovis, Tom Cloninger &
Sara H. Grissop.

Permission was granted by Mr. Robert Land to move grave markers to
Cloninger-Derr cemetery due to so much vandalism and destruction of old
gravesites.  The two Cloninger markers were the only ones that were not
broken.  Thanks, Mr. Land.
