2/12/2021 - The Boyd Cemetery is the correct cemetery for William Starnes Wellborn and not the Langston Cemetery. The confusion is because the Boyd Cemetery is near Langston, Alabama. I'm now 71 years old and I first visited this grave about 60 years ago as a child. My brother, Jack, was instrumental in getting a CSA memorial for the grave.
