The cemetery is nearer to Hermann, MO, probably 2 hours or less from St. Louis. Wilhoit cemetery in Osage County, Missouri, USA. Latitude: 38.59806 : Longitude: -91.74278 You can see the map at http://atlas.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?searchtype=address&formtype=address&l atlongtype=decimal&latitude=38.59806&longitude=-91.74278 The man my friend is researching, and who is supposed to be buried there, is named Oberkrom - another nice German name. That area of Missouri was settled by Germans and most of the towns and businesses have German names. I was hoping that since there are so many Wilhoits on this list that some of them might have knowledge of that cemetery or the families buried there. I don't know enough about Oberkrom's family to know if there was intermarriage with Wilhoits or if it was just the closest cemetery to his residence. My friend is planning a trip there at some point so if I get more information I will share it. Bonnie S.
