    1. [IAPOTTAW] Edward Warburton
    2. Hello all, I am searching for the burial place (and any other information) of my GGGrandfather, Edward Warburton, in Council Bluffs. He was a Mormon immigrant who, with his family (Wife Sofia, son Richard 20, and daughter Mary Ann (10) ) came from Liverpool, England on the sailing ship Zetland in 1849, came up the river to St Louis, and then up to Council Bluffs. Edward contracted cholera and died in Council Bluffs on May 16, 1849. The remainder of the family stayed there for awhile, but left for Salt Lake City with the last train of 1849, that being the E. T. Benson wagon train. I hope I can find someone who can point me in the right direction to where ever such burials were done, where any documentation may be, or any other help. I am attending the Oregon-California Trails Association convention in Manhattan, Kansas during the week of August 11-15 and plan to travel on Thursday the 14th to Council Bluffs and Omaha (Florence) to check out whatever I may be able to find. Any information will be greatly appreciated. Thanks and regards, Jerry Carbiener Minden, NV GACarbiener@aol.com
