Susan Carol Yarbrough clearly states on her HCI website, the Macedonia Cemetery is in Franklin County: http://www.carolyar.com/Illinois/cemeteries.htm The direct link to the cemetery is: http://www.carolyar.com/Illinois/Cemetery/Macedonia/Macedonia.htm The cemetery work includes a lot of notes. I would think it best to just link to her website for this cemetery unless you intend to get all the gravestones photographed to post on your website. Note the following statement from the cemetery web page: We have been granted permission by the compiler, JoAnn McGhee, and the Frankfort Area Genealogy Society to post this Cemetery Transcription at our website. We are much indebted to Jo Ann for this wonderful piece of historical work. Jo Ann has requested that any corrections or additions be emailed to her at jmcghee6@bellsouth.net.

Hi Julia, Here is Lodema's obit, in case you don't have it. It mentions that her daughter Nannie d. June 1921. per Daily American (PULLIAM 1998)1921-1924, W. Frankfort, IL, pg 23-24 - 24, 26, & 28 Feb 1923 issues The condition of Mrs. Lodema E. CARTER, better known as Grandma CARTER, is very alarming. She is the mother of T.P. CARTER and Will A. CARTER. - NOTE: On 26 February 1923 her death is reported as having occurred at 8 p.m. on February 25th. She was born in Williamson County, Illinois (obit states she was born 10 April 1850 in Posey Co., Indiana) and with her parents, William and Nancy McREYNOLDS, came to Illinois in 1853 and settled in Franklin Co., in what is now West Frankfort. On 10 April 1871 she was married to W.T. CARTER. To them were born six children, of whom three preceded her in death, namely, Carrie and Blanche CARTER, who died in early childhood, and Mrs. Nannie C. CAMPBELL, who died in June 1921. Shortly after her marriage, she and her husband became members of the County Line Baptist Church. Since the death of her husband some 24 years ago, she had lived with a daughter at Pittsburg, coming two years ago to West Frankfort, Illinois, and has since made her home with the family of her son. She was 72 years old. She also leaves a daughter, Mrs. George ARMS of Johnston City; and two brothers, D.E. and T.M. McREYNOLDS.

Susan, There is the Good Hope Cemetery in Hamilton Co. It is close to the Saline Co. line and I think in Flannigan Twp. This cemetery was restored a few years ago and has been maintained until now by a group of the Tate Family who lives close to it. It is in danger of falling into disrepair again because of the age of the people who try to keep it clean. It has John V. Tate buried in it and he was a Civil war Vet. I have a list of the people buried there or what could be found after the clean up and stones were uncovered. Would you want a copy of that list??? Also is there anyway Hamilton co. would take over maintaining this cemetery??? I can hardly stand to think of it growing up with trees and bushes again. The people who cleaned it a few years ago litterly crawled on hands and knees finding graves and then cleaning it. Why oh Why aren't these old cemeteries important to the counties??? -----Original Message----- From: ilfrankl-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:ilfrankl-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of SDorris Sent: Saturday, March 30, 2013 1:53 PM To: ilfrankl@rootsweb.com Subject: [ILFRANKL] NEED HELP IN HAMILTON http://ilhamilton.genealogyvillage.com/ I'm working on the Hamilton Co page today.

I remember Chuck from school, but didn't know him that well, he always seemed to be fairly quiet. I also remember the Zettler family, there were several of the Zettler kids in Sesser Schools. Chuck also had an older sister that is not mentioned in his obit. and right off the top of my head I don't remember her name. Bob -----Original Message----- From: BLS <elvis500@frontier.com> To: Franklin County <ilfrankl@rootsweb.com>; Jefferson County <iljeffer@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thu, Apr 4, 2013 6:19 am Subject: [ILFRANKL] SKURAT, Charles (OBIt) SCHELLER - Charles "Chuck" Skurat, 63, died April 2, 2013, at home. He was born Jan. 22, 1950, in Chicago to Charles and Bernice (Bennett) Skurat. Chuck married Glenna (Zettler) Skurat on April 13, 1968. Survivors include children, Jennifer and Randy Neff of West Frankfort and Chad and Diana Skurat of Scheller; grandchildren Mathew Skurat of Scheller and Zachary Skurat of Scheller; stepgrandchildren, Christina Neff, Elizabeth Neff and Michael Hurt, all of Du Quoin; four stepgreat-grandchildren; brother, Kevin Skurat of Herrin; and special friends, Tom and Mary Mansfield and Don and Carol Drysdale. He was preceded in death by his father. Services will be at 11 a.m. Saturday, April 6, in Brayfield-Gilbert Funeral Home in Sesser, with Pastor Ryan Harris and the Rev. Keith Filer officiating. Interment will be in Paradise Cemetery, west of Sesser. Visitation will be after 5 p.m. Friday at the funeral home. Brayfield-Gilbert Funeral Home in Sesser is in charge of arrangements. Never before has there been a man more loved and appreciated than this man, Chuck Skurat. A tremendous blessing to all of his family and many friends, he leaves a lasting mark on the hearts of all who knew him. Chuck was a devoted family man who was always there for his wife, children and grandchildren and faithfully cared for his parents in their elderly years. He loved the outdoors, enjoying hunting, fishing, and practicing the art of taxidermy. He had artistic talent in drawing and writing. He was a "jack of all trades," able to remodel your home, repair your car or cook your breakfast. Anyone who knew Chuck, knows he had a great sense of humor, which kept everyone around him happy and laughing. Friends and family alike have often called upon his wise counsel for Godly advice during life's trials or to simply have a friend to listen to the cares of the heart. Chuck's greatest desire in life was to love God, love his family, and love people, which he did with great success. He had a servant's heart, evident by the efforts he made to help others. Upon return from a visit to skid row in Vancouver, Canada, his heart was moved with compassion and he began to distribute backpacks filled with blankets, food, water, and a Bible to anyone he found homeless here in Southern Illinois. Chuck was a founding member of Keet Waters Ministry, serving for seven years with his daughter, wife and son-in-law. He had a vital role in sharing God's Word and God's Love among Pacific Northwest Coast First Nations of British Columbia, Canada, and a small portion of southeast Alaska. This ministry would not be where it is today without his willingness to travel thousands of miles, his ability to break the ice with strangers, and his many, many prayers. His prayers live on - the seeds he has sown will continue to be watered. They will continue to grow and they will bring forth a harvest. Chuck was retired from Burlington Northern Railroad. He was a member of Faith Asssembly of God in Du Quoin, where he was a deacon for numerous years. He has run his race and finished the fight of faith, for now his eyes are beholding what he has lived for: His Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Chuck will be greatly missed, warmly remembered, and always held dear in our hearts. Those who knew him will not say "goodbye," but instead, "See you later."
