Grandma Fannie Hensley Beach

I'm surprised to not find any dates or places for our Grandma Beach in the genealogy report, but at least we know she is interred at Pleasant Hill Presbyterian Church there at the Buster Boyd Bridge on the Catawba River, York Road, Mecklenburg County side. I remember when she died, but don't remember going to the funeral, that was just a month after my fifth birthday. I do remember helping my Mother to clean and bath her, and me having to empty the bed pan. I don't remember the white hair, some what grayish but not snow white. I would like to know a lots more about the Hensley clan. We can work on this article a lots more.
