Thank you to all who responded concerning the unmarked graves in Fredonia Cemetery. I had written to the Stacy Lewis Funeral Home in Columbus Junction, who referred me to the Sexton. He advised me that records had not been kept on these graves. I then went to the courthouse in Wapello and was advised that the county was working on a project to upgrade information on these burial sites, and was referred to the Clerk and Trustees of Concord Township. Again the response was, there are no records. The next advice I received, was to check the bank to see who purchased the plots. I figured it might be worth a try. The only "proof" I have that family is even in this cemetery, is the obituaries I have found. That may be all I will ever have, but it seems a shame to me that a funeral home would ever say, "it is no one else's business." These people were our family. It IS our business! And they should be remembered with a marker that says "they existed." Which I hope to do eventually. Thank You, Norma for all you do for Louisa County.
