Judy: Sounds like you have some really spastic records there in trying to sort out all of the Madison Co., IA, burials. I posted some of the names of interest in an earlier e-mail today which constitute the children of Andrew (S) JOHNSON. One of his descendants who appears in the Census records was his grandson Moscow JOHNSON. I don't know which son of Andrew's is his father. The first name of Moscow is pretty unique. There is no real rush on the lookups as I can imagine that you are as busy as everyone else. To have those records available on the internet is going to be great for everyone researching that part of the State. I know that such records which are being posted on the Ontario Co., NY, website are quite valuable for the LOTT line I am chasing. Thanking you in advance for any information you might happen upon.
