    1. re:Garden of Faith Cemetery - Lingner
    2. Dear Lynn and list members, I had a very wonderful visit to Garden of Faith today in the very very cold weather. A very nice consultant (Brenda W.) took the time to walk with me to the various burial sites and she provided a map for me. As part of their service they put flag markers on the roadside to direct you using your map. Today, the work crew was very busy so she took me out to the sections I needed but we still need someone from the road crew to help us. Lynn, I was able to locate and take pictures of the site for Charles A. Lingner and his wife Anna. I can email you the pictures if you like and I can send you the locator map by regular mail. Charles Lingner died 2/26/1976. I was able to locate Milton Krauk and his family so that now I have an actual death date so that I can request an obituary from Enoch Pratt. I already requested my limit (5) for this month. Even though they were unable to find those - I will have to wait until next month. For any other Krauk researchers the death date is 8/20/1977. I was able to see that his son is buried in that plot and it looks like his wife and daughter-in-law may still be living. I hope to contact them and perhaps they can offer me more guidance on the Krauk family. Milton's father was the older brother to my George Herman Krauk. Thank you all for your help with Garden of Faith. They have more Krauk's there but Brenda did not print off a list for me so I will have to make another trip. Lynn, please let me know if you would like the photograph. Oh yes, while visiting the grave sites Brenda noticed that the Lingner marker, the Krauk marker and the Callahan marker that we saw had all sunk down and she said she automatically would put in a work order to have them raised back to ground level. Louise Callahan's marker was totally under water so I will have to revisit to just be able to see it. Gail
