Burial Locations of Free Will Baptist Ministers in West Virginia. Dr. Alton Loveless and I served together on the Free Will Baptist Historical Commission. One of the qualities that impressed me about Alton was his commitment to and interest in Free Will Baptist history. It will be of special importance to future historians as they continue to unfold the amazing Free Will Baptist story. He has done careful and exhaustive research into the gravesites of denominational leaders, preachers, and missionaries for the past 250 years. --Jack Williams, Welch College
