Ron....I see that Keith has answered your query. No the cemeteries are not online. We are in the process of adding the small cemeteries and having some difficulties which we will get worked out eventually. There is probably no chance we will ever get the larger cemeteries online because we don't have enough people living in Mills County to walk and verified the large cemeteries. If you have other cemetery questions though there are a number of people who own the cemetery book and will be glad to answer your questions. BTW welcome to the mailing list.

First I would like to say, that Mills County has a wonderful website and helpful information on it. It is wonderful... Thanks to everyone and anyone that put so much effort into it. Next, I wanted to ask for help... I am looking for the family of Via Pace and wife Josephene. They had two daughters, Capatolia, and Ulian (not sure of spelling). I found them living in Glenwood in 1900. I did not see them in the histories posted. His family is from Montgomery Co. I don't seem to find cemetery records for them. Could someone tell me what cemeteries are in the Glenwood area, and are they posted on the website, that I might look at them. Thanks so much, any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Cay, Boy, did I just happen to write at the right time! I get a daily digest so hadn't even seen your post when I sent mine in. No apologies necessary. > There are also at least 2 Fairview Cemeteries in > Pottawattamie Co. One is rural - east of Council > Bluffs a few miles; the other is in Council Bluffs proper. This is helpful information too. I knew Jobe Allen HAINES was buried in a "Fairview" Cemetery in Pottawattamie Co, but I didn't know where it was exactly. I'm glad to be aware now there are two of them and approximately where they are located. I'm hoping to get over that way next summer. Linda

Linda L.Joy@juno.com

Linda, You are right. The names I show on my file do show the names you mention but somewhere along the way many names have been lost before they got to the web pages. I will get on this tomorrow night with Margaret. I am glad you stuck to your guns and made me look further. My apologies to all of you.

Received a possible explanation for you Linda. Could this be the answer? Cay Hi Cay, There are also at least 2 Fairview Cemeteries in Pottawattamie Co. One is rural - east of Council Bluffs a few miles; the other is in Council Bluffs proper. There may be more near Mills Co., but am familiar with these two for sure.

Hi Cay, There must be two Fairview Cemeteries. Will you eventually include the cemetery northwest of Tabor on your website? Linda <L.Joy@juno.com> Genealogy - Collecting dead relatives and sometimes a live one!

There is only one Fairview Cemetery in Mills County. Located on the west side of Highway 275, six miles south of Highway 34, or three miles north of Tabor. It is Section 16, Rawles Township. You can located it on the Rawles Township map on the township index on the Mills web page. If you are talking about northwest of Tabor it would have to be in Lyons Twp. I would think. Tell me who you are looking for. Cay Linda Willuweit-Joy wrote: > > Hi Cay, > > There must be two Fairview Cemeteries.

The Mills County Cemeteries book lists Francis SHANNON as the lot owner of lot 131 in Glenwood Cemetery. The book reads; "The following names on the Works Progress Administration (WPA) listing circa 1938 were of Lot Owners, no dates. Some may be names of living persons and some buried elsewhere." It further shows that lot 131 is in section S12. There are a number of Mayberry's, among them Harvey and Arvilla, buried in the Glenwood Cemetery, according to the book. The listing for Harvey and Arvilla is as follows: Harvey MAYBERRY, 1840 - 1917 (Civil War - GAR) Arvilla, wife of Harvey, 1840 - 1930 They are buried in section 1, Row 5 of the Glenwood Cemetery. Hope this helps. Gay (Sivers) Weston Researching SIVERS, LEADER, MEADOWS, COOK, EVERNHAM

According to Mills County Iowa Cemeteries (p. 72, Glenwood Cemetery): "The following names on the Works Progress Administration (WPA) listing circa 1938 were of Lot Owners, no dates. Some may be names of living persons and some buried elsewhere." Shannon, Francis, lot 131 is then listed as one of those names.

Dear Cay & Margaret, Thank you, thank you for all you do! I'm thrilled you are going to put the Fairview Cemetery online! I have quite a few photos of my relatives graves in Mills Co. I got my scanner for Xmas so I'm still figuring out how to use it. However, when I do, I'll send some scans to Margaret. Some families included would be HAINES, WARD, and McPHERRON. Linda WJ <L.Joy@juno.com> Genealogy - Collecting dead relatives and sometimes a live one!

A big thanks to everyone involved...cemetery records are invaluable!! We have walked and recorded several in our area --and we'd encourage everyone to get involved wherever you live! "Our" cemeteries are online at www.interment.net , along with thousands of others. Pam (in Idaho)
