Dave, I am a subscriber to the Washington County, Iowa, list at RootsWeb, where I saw your query was posted. I'm going to the county genealogical library Saturday and will take your message along to see what I can find for you. If I'm not mistaken, all of the cemeteries in the county have been platted and transcribed, so I will check whether John and Sarah are definitely listed among those buried at Shiloh. Of course, as you write, most probably only those with headstones are listed in the books. But I will see what I can find on the church and cemetery. If you have anything more specific to relate, please do so before Saturday morning. -- Jeff ________________________ On Wed, 16 May 2001 20:48:34 -0600 "David L.
