WHERE
ARE YOUR FOLKS
BURIED?
----------------------------------00000--------------------------------
This
"
unknown" has surely been a
nagging
and un-resolved experience
for
many of you,
and,
most definitely, it has been, for me.
In
many cases,
we
may even know the large general area of
the grave site,
but,
circumstances
have made it impossible,
to
go look for,
or to
know for sure,
just
where our relative has been placed.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hopefully, some bit, of the information,
in this
county-wide, searchable database,
may be the "find" that ends the complexities,
of the long hunting season,
that each of us has been on,
at some time during our family search endeavors.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The
credit for the content
of
this research vehicle
must
be awarded to each of many, many
people;
un-related, perhaps,
in a genealogical sense,
but,
having
a common purpose;
that being,
1)
to contribute of their time, efforts
and expenses,
in
an attempt to give an amount of due
reverence and
"remembrance"
to
those folks who have gone on before
us;
2)
recording their record that is
"written
in stone";
and,
3)
providing a tool of research,
for each one of us today----- and,
also for our as yet
un-born,
replacement, researchers.

In
your mind, or, holler,
if you wish, thank
the
contributors ,
of
this data-----
hurray..............,
hurrah...............,
hurrah...............!!!

There are many of these cemetery locations,
that are situated
in the hilly areas,
of
good old
Mercer County, that
"MOTHER
NATURE"
has
once again re-claimed,
taken back what was
borrowed
from
her----
repossessed,
if
you will,
because,
"we"
may
be among those that have
not been good stewards.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Making
the trek to a cemetery location,
can be quite perilous,
in and of itself.
While obtaining the information,
from the grave
stones,
those that can be found,
these contributor
"gatherers"
may
have put themselves in
"harms'
way",
in
many precarious ways;
as it can be said of many of these
cemetery sites,
"there's
a jungle out there".
Hats off to each of you guys and gals!!!
