Maggie Louise Alexander; Jacob and Gladys Alexander Ruther; Helen Alexander and

Kenneth and Beatrice Lloyd Alexander.


Several years ago, a group of concerned people placed these markers where
they believed Daniel and Suzanne Wiggins' graves were located in the cemetery
of present-day Mt. Pleasant Baptist Church.  The location was picked because
the graves of their offspring were close by.  They wanted to make sure that he
was memorialized, even though they didn't know exactly where he and his wife
Suzanne were buried.  Daniel once owned and lived on the same land in which
he was buried, and Suzanne was probably the first to be buried there.  The church
was once known as Wiggins Church in years past.  Today it's an active growing
church located in Grimes, Dale County, Alabama near Dothan, yet still in the
same location.  Until Abbeville became Henry County, Alabama's seat, much of
Grimes was known as Richmond, Henry's original county seat.  Daniel first lived
in South Carolina, and accompanied Mrs. Frances Alexander into SC from NC.
