It’s been almost a century and a half since James Rylee died, but a marker will be placed at his gravesite. The ceremony is scheduled for 2 p.m. Oct. 29, at the Rylee Family Cemetery, Herbert Segers Road, Gillsville. The Robert Forsyth and Joseph Habersham chapters of the Georgia Society of the Sons of the American Revolution will perform the rites on a knoll in the middle of a picturesque pasture near Gillsville.
