VEREEN CEMETERY
Photo's and notes
***************************************
| The Vereen Cemetery has several Frierson Family member burials and has an
interesting history. They may have extended the City limits of Hudson by now,but the the cemetery was always located in Old Fivay.The cemetery is located about 5 miles east of Hudson, across the street from the Hudson High School. It was near the Frierson Homestead. There was a church there but it burned. William Graham Frierson was my great grandfather and a nephew of Major Aaron Taylor Frierson. William G. was a son of William James Frierson and his first cousin Susanna Keziah Graham. ( They had a son, Aaron Taylor Frierson who died young ). My grandfather was John Taylor Frierson and had only one brother,William Edward, who named his first son William Taylor. My grandfather never had a son but one of his daughters named her first son John Taylor, who is called Jack. Major Aaron Taylor Frierson was a person who helped William G. and his youngest brother, Charles Robin Frierson, to come to Florida after the Civil War. One of my Great-Aunts wrote that they came by boat and an Uncle A.T. met them with wagons and led them to the Old Spring Hill, then in the 1880's William G.homesteaded. His farm was once what is now the Grace Memorial Gardens on U.S.19. Uncle Robin is buried in Dade City. Sincerely, Ione Woodall. note: Major Aaron Taylor Frierson was in Hernando Co. from about 1847 |
