As you identify the cemeteries, you could post messages here asking if anybody lives close enough to affix the marker for you, perhaps. As for unmarked graves, I wonder how many cemeteries have a stone like the one at Marysvale, Piute, Utah: Beneath the flagpole at the entrance to the cemetery, there is a large fieldstone where small plaques have been affixed to remember persons known to be buried in the cemetery when the exact grave locations have been lost. These plaques are the small ones provided by mortuaries as temporary grave markers, but they have been mounted permanently to the fieldstone. Now that I've written that, I wonder if I'm mistaken and those names are those of veterans buried there... In any case, I'll bet a lot of cemeteries have such a marker, or a wall where such a plaque could be affixed. Would be worth contacting the individual cemeteries to ask, wouldn't it? Good luck. You've got a big project, and I hope that we would all be willing to help you if you identify a grave in a cemetery nearby. Ardis AEParshall@aol.com
