Ia Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ia/VanBuren/11270 Surname: Smith, Schultz ------------------------- I'm afraid I can't help you with the cemetery you're seeking, but I believe that at least some of the information you have is likely to be correct. One of my wife's great, great grandmothers was Hester Catherine Schultz Smith. According to information gathered by my wife's family, Hester moved with her husband (Peter C Smith) and family from Pennsylvania to Van Buren County, Iowa in 1849. They moved to Missouri in 1855, but eventually moved back to the Cantril area. My wife's family agrees with you about Hester having died in 1886, but they have her date of birth as September 4, 1808, rather than 1811. I'll be happy to share any additional information I can, although most of what little I have relates to Hester's descendants. I'd also, of course, be happy to obtain any information you can share about Hester, her descendants, any siblings, or her parents.
