On January 1, 2009, I visited the Sunset Hill Cemetery (also known as Valdosta Cemetery) in Valdosta, Georgia. It can be found on Oak Street, not far South from the intersection of Baytree Road. Eula Newton Barfield was my great-great aunt and the sister of Charles Edwin Newton, my great-grandpa. She married Robert Essie Barfield. In front of their tombstones is a bench that states "neath this seat lie five infant Barfields." It is thought that they had quintuplets, but none of my live relatives recall hearing that story before. They are located in section C-204, which is pretty close to the entrance.
