HILLCREST CEMETERY ~ Tulare County ~ MARY E WARD "Jim E. Ward KIN" http://www.cagenweb.com/archives/cemeteries/tulare/tula-hill-t.htm Hello, By any chance does anyone know if someone has canvassed this cemetery and taken photo's?? I have 3 or 4 family members here, One is my gg grandmother MARY E. WARD, I'm curious to see her stone as I have just located her husband James Thomas Ward, in Indian territory Okla. in an unmarked grave. Wanted to see what her son James E. Ward did for his mom to give me an idea of something to do for his father. James Thomas Ward, He passed away in 1901, left Mary E. Ward a widowed in 1901 with 6 living children of 8 they had together, James E. Ward age 1yr. The two little ones that were lost young are located with there father in Prospect Cemetery in Old Burnett Indian territory Oklahoma. Currently Macomb Oklahoma. I also found the brother & sister in law to my g g grandfather & Wish I could find some kin to them they have descendants in California. Wish I could locate some of the KNIGHT family to obtain some clues as I do have there full names are still listed now on the website for Prospect now. I've been attempting to provide them with dates & full names of the brother & sister in law located here. I did get the dates & names for Annie Knight & William E. Ward, up on that site, but there are several family members to then unmarked. I can't do for all but for my gg grandfather & two children. But thought I could at try to get them names & dates for the markers of his brother & sister in law & kin located there. Here is the url to that cemetery. MY 3 family members are totally unmarked presently. The have markers up but nothing on them yet. http://www.rootsweb.com/~okcemete/pott/prospect/prospect.htm I've just recently gotten his name listed to the cemetery site for Prospect as they had no record of him or his two children there with him. I was able to prove he is there by way of old family letters that were written before my birth by to of the son's of Mary, one of the James "Jim' E. Ward who took care of his mother. The other my g grandfather and the oldest of the living children CT WARD also wrote letter's. We are not exactly sure what side the two little ones are on each side of him but we are working on it. The are by him the question at this moment is who is on what side William or Jesse & on the right or left?? Uggh! I want to place something for them, in Oklahoma and was hoping to see what was done for my gg grandmother, In Hillcrest to get an idea for him. The other family members here are Mary E. Ward, her son James E. Ward. James daughter Jennie C Ward Herzog & wife Audrey Fern Ward. There could be more family here but this is all I'm aware of at present. I really like to located Jim E. Wards remaining family in California, So I could share some letter's written by him that were written before 1963. Thanks and I hope someone may know of someone who has taken photo's in this cemetery or a url that may have photo's listing some markers or stones?? Best regards.
