She is the Township Clerk and can tell you where to find them in the cemetery. There is a building at Maple Hill Cemetery in Osceola where you can stop and ask for the directions to burials. Should be open on Memorial Day. You can also call the Decatur Co. Recorder's Office and find out who the Township clerks are for Grand River Cemetery (Richland Township) and Leon Cemetery (CenterTownship). You can then call the Clerks and find out where the burials are. County Recorder: 641-446-4322 These are all pretty large cemeteries, so I can see why you would need to know ahead of time.

I have been there before, and there are tombstones I am not able to find. Perhaps someone on this list who is familiar with the cemeteries can help me by telling me where in the cemetery I should look for the stone. In the Maple Hill Cemetery in Osceola, I want to find the stone of Farild and Donna Glazebrook. In the Leon Cemetery, I want to find the stones of Henry & Mariah C Quiett. In the Murray Cemetery, I want to find stones for Keith Glazebrook, and William P & Doris Glazebrook. I found an index that said what row they should be in, but was never able to locate them on my last trip. In the Grand River Cemetery, I want to find Mansel and Sylvia Brammer. It is said to be a flat stone. Can anyone help me with the location of any of these tombstones? Thanks very much! _________________________________________________________________

Nancee, Is that building at Maple Hill in the older section? I've only been in the newer section. Didn't know there was a building there at all. (And I LIVE in Osceola!!

I"m not sure if the Radio Shack in Osceola will be open on Memorial Day, but they offer a book for sale on locations of burials in Maple Hill Cemetery, burials up to 1996.   I believe the book runs about $22.   Hope this helps.
