    1. Re: [ILCHAMPA-L] Fisher Cemetery
    2. Hi: I knew the name Parrett and possibly Claussen sounded familiar. Some of my Illinois relatives include the Keefers. In John B. Keefer's obit, it mentions an O. Parret as a pallbearer. It also mentions a J.N. Clouse, which of course could be an error; reporters were widely known to make mistakes. Somewhere else, I don't know where, I've run across Claussen; I'll look. Does the O. Parret make sense. The obit is from 1913 in Farmer City. Bob Espinosa >Is Fisher Cemetery in Champaign or Sangamon County?
