Knowing your limitations

[Rob Wick]

Liz,

Thanks for the supportive words. As soon as I feel comfortable with what I've got, I'll e-mail you a copy and let you take a look at the trouble.

Thanks also, Betty.

Joe, here's the map from Oak Ridge. I tried to post the image but for some reason ImageShack wouldn't upload it. Thomas, Pratt and Barrett are somewhere in Block 32 while Herndon is in Block 14. There is a sign which points the way to Herndon's grave, but Thomas has only a small stone while Pratt is nearby. Barrett has an upright stone. I have the lot numbers for Barrett and Thomas, but as I'm not sure how they are laid out, how much that will help I don't know.

In John Hoffman's article on Thomas, he writes "Thomas is buried on a knoll in Oak Ridge Cemtery, close to the graves of Oliver Barrett, the Lincoln Collector, and Harry Pratt, the Lincoln scholar. Down the hill from their monuments runs a road, and beyond, on an open, high plateau, stands the Lincoln Tomb." Surely between us all, someone will find one of them.

Best
Rob
