Faye,
If he has no marker other than a stone with his initials, that would explain why he does not appear in the book. The book was written by two Robert Lee ladies who recorded and then sorted the information that they took from the headstones in the cemeteries. They were working from the actual headstones rather than any kind of records. Coke County will always be my county in my heart but after being raised in Robert Lee I moved from there and have lived elsewhere for some thirty years. Hayrick Masonic Lodge is the owner of the Robert Lee Cemetery and possibly could be contacted for records. According to the cemetery book, the land was given to them for a cemetery soon after the town was founded in 1892.

I hope some of this is of some help.
