Ray, I am the great-granddaughter of Osceola Hamilton nee Mahon. She was a sister to Rollin Wilson Mahon. I might have a few odds and ends for you. First of all, I have a picture of Rollin's grave up on my homepage. Looks like I have a couple of other Hoovers there, also. Go to http://www.advancenet.net/~conure/geneindex.htm Scroll down. There is a spot called GRAVESTONE INDEX If you click there it will take you to a (somewhat) alphabetical listing of individuals. After the name of the person it will tell you where they are. Go back to the main page, find the cemetery, and click. You will be taken to Photopoint where the pictures are. Sorry it's a bit confusing. I couldn't get to Photopoint at 06:26 a.m. this morning (Friday). They must be down for maintenance. Old Loogootee Cemetery is one that you might really want to check out the most. Rollin was a school teacher, the postmaster and also ran a store with Vernie R. Hamilton in St. James, IL. Busy guy, huh? I would be interested to know if you have any other info on Mary Almeda? I have that she remarried an Ed Smith, but no reference for this or any thing else. Where did she die, where is she buried, etc. I would appreciate any help. I've lost poor Mary! If I can be of any other help, just e-mail. sherry smith-stanford conure@advancenet.net
