PLEASE READ THIS:

I have learned that at least four headstones have been vandalized and dumped in the woods on Fort Bragg property. Fort Bragg employees have placed them at the edge of the pines at Sandy Grove Presbyterian Church. One has since been repatriated back to Cross Creek Cemetery. The original locations of the rest have not been determined so they stay at Sandy Grove. We suspect they could all be from Cross Creek. If you can identify the markers please contact Myrtle Bridges or Jeff Irwin, Tel. 910-396-6680. Thanks for your help. June 10, 2004. McDuffie Listings added August 05, 2005

McDuffie Alexander After much research, I have proof that my G-G Grandparents (McDuffie) 
are interred at Sandy Grove Church  cemetery.  I found two obits in the Fayetteville Observer.  
The 1st dated December 21, 1893 reads: "We regret to learn of the death by apoplexy of our 
esteemed country man Alexander McDuffie, Esq. which occurred Tuesday night at his home in 
Quewhiffle, in his 63rd year.  Funeral services will be held today at Sandy Grove church by 
Rev. David Fairley.  The deceased gentelman, who was very popular with his neighbors leaves 
a widow and seven children."  
McDuffie Christiana The second dated Feb. 24, 1898 reads: "Miss Christiana McDuffie, relic of 
the late Alexander McDuffie, died at her home in Quewhiffle, Friday at 3:00 pm in her 73rd year.  
She leaves three sons and four daughters to mourn her loss.  The funeral will take place tomorrow 
at noon from Sandy Grove Church".  With other military records I was successful in getting a 
grave stone added at the cemetery for Alexander but not for his wife Christiana even though she 
is definetly buried there.  Could you please add their names to your list?  Alexander was brother 
to Daniel McDuffie, best friend of Daniel McCaskill (your relative) who also died at the battle of 
Gettysburg.  Thanks so much for your help in this.  Judy
