Askew Family Cemetery
Milwaukee, Northampton County, North Carolina, USA
There are only 4 marked graves in this location but this cemetery had more in the 1940's/1950's. This is the original burial location of Robert McDowell Johnson, George & Magnolia's son-in-law, husband of their daughter Hattie Deloris Askew. Mac's grave was moved to Milwaukee Cemetery late 1950's to early 1960's. This location is also the burial site of an unnamed infant son of Mac & Hattie who was born and died about 1912. The baby's grave was covered with a cement slab. When Mac's grave was moved to Milwaukee Cemetery, the infant's slab and grave were so deteriorated that they crumbled and the grave was not moved.
I have a photo of me taken about 1948 at the headstone of my great grandmother Magnolia Elizabeth Warren Askew which showed an adult cement slab in a second row of graves. That was the grave of my paternal grandfather Robert McDowell Johnson who's grave was moved to Milwaukee Cemetery.
