Beautiful merchandise and liberal
credit arrangements can encourage
consumers to spend — and overs
pend — for Christmas.
Many department stores now in
vite their customers to charge mer
chandise without having to pay the
bills until January or February.
These “no payment” plans can
work to your advantage if you al

ice.
If you do not have to pay a fi
nance charge, extended credit
amounts to a free loan, she says.
Then during the time you postpone
payments, you can save up the cash
to pay the hill.
“But if you are already overex
tended, postponing payments may
only add to your money woes,”
Granvosky says. “Delayed spending
can give customers a false sense of
security or encourage them to spend
more than they would have spent
when paying cash.”
One way to avoid the need for ex
tended credit at Christmas is to pur
chase gifts year-round and take ad
vantage of sales and other specials,
she says.
But even if you only shop during
the Christmas season, planning your
gift purchases and setting spending
limits can help you stay within the
family budget, Granvosky says.

By KEN DORSEY
Reporter
Don Simons, assistant director of
KAMU-TV, has a hobby: he locates
and maps cemeteries in Brazos
County. Simons, president of the
Brazos Genealogical Association,
helped start the project two years
a s°-
“My kids think I’m nuts,” Simons
said.
Simons has identified 78 cemete
ries in the area.
“When we started, I figured we
might find a little more than 30 ce
meteries in the communities
around,” he said. “I really have been
surprised by the number.”
The Alexander Cemetery, located
in Bryan, is the oldest cemetery Si
mons has been able to find, with
burials dating back to the 1840s.
Outside the cemetery area, another
burial site exists. However, there is
no way of knowing how many peo
ple are buried since inscriptions car
ved on wooden markers have disap
peared with the passage of time,
Simons said.
In many cases, cemeteries are de
stroyed by cattle pushing the mark
ers over, he said. Landowners who
discover burial sites on their prop
erty frequently move the markers to
a place they consider safer, or en
close them in a solid fence that resist
cattle and the intrusion of others.
“In all cemeteries, particularly the
rural ones, you have the individuals
who feel it is a good thing to steal or
tear-up a marker...or simply to de
stroy the cemetery,” Simons said.
“There are some very pretty cemete
ries around here, but there are some
that need tender loving care which
haven’t been looked at for several
years.
In the Big Event two years ago,
Texas A&M students equipped with
rakes, mowers and other tools got to
gether and cleaned seven cemete
ries. Last year, about 500 A&M stu
dents helped gather information
from the tombstones and listed five
cemeteries in Brazos County, he
said.
“We took 200 of those students
into the Bryan City Cemetery, and
vve listed more than 6,000 graves
there,” Simons said. “It’s interesting
making out the indexes of the ceme
teries.
“You often see patterns of deaths
that occurred in families and in a
particular time period. You might
go 10 years without seeing a death in
a family, then suddenly there will be
two or three because of an influenza,
yellow fever or something that has
gone through the community.
“From a historical standpoint, it
helps you understand the lack of
doctors and the lack of being able to
go to the doctor.”
Once the cemeteries are discov
ered, they are protected only
through community effort or activ
ity. Otherwise, subsequent landown
ers or owners can come in, utilize the
land and actually destroy the site, he
said.
If you enter a cemetery by metes
and bounds, as far as Texas is con
cerned, you cannot convey title to
the land occupied by a cemetery, Si
mons said. T he part of your land
that is a cemetery is tax exempt as an
inducement for people to actually
use it. But you can still use the min
eral rights under it, he added.
“We try to get everyone who has a
cemetery on property who hasn’t en
tered the metes and bounds before
now to do so,” Simons said. “This
way people in the future will know it
was a cemetery.”
At one time, A&M had a cemetery
on campus where Duncan Dining
Hall now stands. In 1939, before the
construction of Duncan, the ceme
tery was moved to the southwest cor
ner of campus dose to where the
Treehouse Apartments are located.
Nine bodies are buried there, in
cluding a former president of A&M,
he said.
Most of the community sites Si
mons has relocated date from the
1860s and on. Bryan did not become
a community until 1870, so you
really have to look hard for graves
dating before 1860, Simons said.
Simons used the six funeral
homes in the area to help him find
the burial sites.
“The older funeral homes natu
rally knew of more cemeteries,” he
said. “I would mark them off, then
go out and physically find them.”
Since 1903, it has been a require
ment for all deaths to be reported to
the state Health Bureau Department
of Vital Statistics. The bureau main
tains these lists in Austin as a perma
nent collection. If a death has been

the local courthouse and then re
ported the death to the state depart
ment. Simons said in most cases this
f irocedure is followed, but at times
uneral homes get the wrong infor
mation or just simply forget to file it.
“We found a little cemetery at the
junction of 2223 Road and Old
Spanish Road,” he said. “It has five
decipherable grave sites. Off to the
side there are seven other graves
that only have stones...we’ll never
know who is buried in these loca-

The funeral home should have

Awareness of the problem genea
logists face or what a person trying
to trace his roots may encounter is
precisely why Simons is so deeply in
volved in his hobby.

Quintuplets mom took fertility drug before pregnancy
United Press International
SAN ANTONIO — The mother
of quintuplets born Friday was tak
ing a prescribed fertility drug before
her pregnancy, a spokesman at Wil-
ford Hall Air Force Medical Center
said Sunday.
One of the male children died of
complications from his premature
birth and small size about six hours
after birth Friday, and the other
four -— three girls and a boy — were
in critical condition Sunday.
Hospital spokesman Stanley Bass
said the infants have been placed on
a high-frequency ventilator “in an at
tempt to improve their severe lung
problems resulting from their ex
treme premature birth.”
The surviving babies have re
mained in critical but stable condi
tion in the military hospital’s neona
tal ward in the intensive care unit.
Hospital officials said the child who
died weighed the most at birth — 1
pound. 10 ounces.
Kyra Afentakis, 30, gave birth by
Caesarean section to five 14-week
premature infants Friday evening.
The quints, who have not yet been
named, are the couple’s first
dren.
The father of the babies, It. 0*
Dimitrios Afentakis, is an officer^
Greece’s Hellenic Air Force and*
assigned to the Euro-NATOjoint/
training program at the 80th
wing of Shepard Air Force Base®
