I have been told by my cousin living in the Czech Republic told that some stones that had been removed from graves were "recycled" into construction projects! > > From: Mrbkdb112@cs.com > Date: 2004/05/12 Wed AM 08:45:19 CDT > To: CZECH-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: Re: [CZ] Translation > <<<SNIP>>> > > Yes, i've been told that also. So, the gravestones of our ancestors who left there are no longer to be found. A lot of cemeteries have old stones piled around the perimeter of the cemetery, names no longer legible. We've been there 6 times and every time, I still can't resist the urge to search in the cemeteries. I have found a few with the same name but they are all newer.The thing is, all the cemeteries are not around the churches. Some are out in the country and its always possible that those graves have not been "reused" as much. > > Thanks for responding. > Millie > > > > > >==== CZECH Mailing List ==== > >No off topic posts, flames, virus warnings, prayers, jokes, > >chain letters, etc. Violators will be placed on message monitoring > >and/or lose subscription privileges. > > > > > > > ==== CZECH Mailing List ==== > All matters pertaining to list administration are exclusively > handled by the List Administrator.
