Has anyone compared the lists that Glee has to the Find-A-Grave lists for Southern and Northern cemeteries? Offhand, I see two people who are listed on both the Southern and Northern Find-A-Grave lists: Susan Brinkerhoff David Demaree David's stone is pictured in his Find-A-Grave listings for both cemeteries - identical stone, different photos - but he does not appear on Glee's list for Southern. A transcription of his stone is under his name on Glee's list for Northern. Susan's stone is not pictured in either Find-A-Grave listing. She does not appear on Glee's list for Southern. Her date of death appears in both places, but her date of birth only in Southern. DOB in Find-A-Grave's Northern is "Unknown." I didn't look beyond David Demaree, so don't know if there are more duplications.
