Your statement arouses my interest because I'm trying to find out what people do when they want to remove and re-inter a body in another place? this concerns an earlier date--back after the Civil War when embalming only had begun to become a practice, as I understand. One of my ancestors was removed and the grave later re-used. That's how I found out about the removal. There had to be regulations, procedures and legal ramifications required. I called a local Funeral Director who might have already encountered this, and got a booklet on arranging funerals in response. I didn't get a chance to ask a professional about it. I would like to know if a reader on this list happens to be a Funeral Director or licensed mortician that can explain what the rules and procedures are for removing a body for shipment to another place.

Better yet, if you are writing on a paper-based photograph (most photos made prior to the early 70's would be on paper -- after that, almost all color photos are on a resin-coated paper), use a soft pencil. I know this shoots the color coding idea in the foot, but some inks, acid-free or not, are likely to bleed. Especially if they are water based. Ed, who has a BA in photography.

Even if they were buried on their own farm, there are other possibles to consider - no gravestone; grave marked by a cross or stone (rock); gravestone was damaged and removed because of beyond repair; vandalism; or weathered beyond legibility and removed by owner at some point in time. Even if the person was buried in a recognized cemetery, there may not have been a gravestone. Some cemeteries have records of the lot owners, but if the burial was in an area labeled as citizens ground or paupers ground, then unless individual burials were recorded and still available, the location may never be known. Also another thing to consider is that sometimes a person in that time was taken back to the place they had previously lived for burial even if it was in another county or state. I've found a few where death was in central IL and burial in central KY. Don't know if they moved back, but the spouse was buried in another location.

It was common. But, a lot of those cemeteries were indexed during the Depression by the WPA Federal Writer's Project. Macoupin was one of the counties indexed. The point was to find veterans. I also heard rumors of a cemetery in Cahokia Twp. that the farmer buried the tombstones face down below plow depth so he could farm the land. I have no proof of this. Carl Sanders and his Boy Scout troops walked a lot of the cemeteries in that area and we have copies of that information in the society's collection at Staunton Library. I would imagine other libraries have this too. I'm sure Litchfield has it as that was where he lived. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, July 08, 2006 10:11 AM Subject: Re: [ILMacoupin] Burials on own Farm Land? > > As Marianne of California wrote: Hello Macoupin County Listers, > > How common was it in the 1850s to bury a person on their own farm land > and not in an official designated cemetery?

Hello Macoupin County Listers, How common was it in the 1850s to bury a person on their own farm land and not in an official designated cemetery? Was this allowed back then in Macoupin County? Or did they need a burial permit & a cemetery for burial? I'm wondering if 3rd gGrandfather, Capt. John Tatch (died 1859) and his daughter, Almira Tatch (died 1864) might be buried on their own farm land in Cahokia, near Mt. Olive. I can find nothing in the available tombstone transcriptions. Any thoughts or ideas on the subject would be most appreciated. Marianne in CA

EARLY MACOUPIN SETTLERS - JOHN CUMMINGS AND SOLOMON DAVIS Here's a puzzle about two of the earliest settlers in North Palmyra Township, Macoupin County. John Cummings, his wife Lucy/Lucinda, and their children settled in North Palmyra in the mid-1820s. Settling next door to the Cummings family was Solomon Davis, his wife Elizabeth, and their children. In 1829, before Macoupin became a county, William Cummings (son of John and Lucinda) married Julia Davis (daughter of Solomon and Elizabeth). Years earlier in Kentucky the John Cummings family and the Solomon Davis family were connected in a number of ways. In 1792, John Cummings married Lucy Elliott, with the bond posted by William Holding of Scott County, Kentucky. William Holding was a next door neighbor of Solomon Davis, according to land records, and also according to the 1810 and 1820 censuses for Scott County, Ky. On July 3, 1794, both John Cummings and Solomon Davis joined Captain George Frazier's Company of the Mounted Volunteers of the Kentucky Militia, both serving to Oct. 26 (116 days). At the time they joined, both were married with families and left their families behind. There is no record of Solomon Davis's marriage to Elizabeth. Her given name showed up in deeds of sale of land by Solomon Davis. The deeds indicated that Solomon's land was adjacent to that of William Holding, and that William Holding sold land on the same day as Solomon Davis, indicating that there seems to have been some re! lationship between them. William Holding was a native of Maryland. He had two sisters, Lucretia and Elizabeth, also natives of Maryland. There is no record of what happened to the sisters. The children of John and Lucy/Lucinda Cummings and the children of Solomon and Elizabeth Davis who were still alive in 1880 at the time of the census, all reported that their fathers were born in Virginia and their mothers in Maryland. Now here are some puzzling questions: Who was the Lucy/Lucinda Elliott who married John Cummings? What happened to Lucretia Holding and Elizabeth Holding, sisters of William Holding? Why was William Holding so involved in both the Cummings and Davis families? My imagination usually gets the best of me, but here are some more questions that attempt to answer my first questions: Could Lucretia Holding have been known also as Lucy or Lucinda Holding? Could she have first married into the Elliott family? Could she have later married John Cummings, with her brother William Holding posting bond? Could William Holding's sister Elizabeth have married Solomon Davis? Could that explain why the William Holding and the Solomon Davis families lived on adjacent tracts of land in Scott County, KY, before selling out in the 1820s and moving on. Could John Cummings and Solomon Davis have been brothers-in-law, explaining why they went off to war together and ended up living on adjacent tracts of land in North Palmyra, Macoupin County, in the late 1820s until their deaths in the 1840s? Could William Cummings (son of John) and his wife Julia Davis (daughter of Solomon) have been first cousins? (If so, it would not have been the only first-co! usin marriage in the Cummings/Davis families. We know that one of the daughters of John and Julia Davis Cummings married one of the sons of Julia's brother Greenup Davis.) I'm hoping that at least a couple of readers who like family history puzzles might offer some ideas on the above story. I have been trying for years to get the surname of Solomon Davis's wife Elizabeth. She is my only great,great,great,grandmother (out of 16) whose name I cannot ascertain. The maternal line runs Elizabeth ? > Julia Davis > Mary Cummings > Lillia Melva Wrightsman (who was my grandmother). Dwayne Wrightsman Lee, NH

Back to School and Genealogy! Remember that New Years resolution you made to organize your genealogy notes, letters, e-mails, computer print outs, etc. Now is the time to buy the supplies. Over the next few month there will be many Back to School sales. You can use these items for organizing your genealogy records. Check your newspaper for sales and COUPONS. Example - WalMart right now has items on sale for 10, 20, 50 and 97 cents!! Stores have notebook paper, 3 ring binders, sheet protectors, spiral notebooks, calculators, file folders, etc on sale. Another good item is the kid's assignment calendars - these are great for keeping track of "TO DO" lists. You can find items now that are not available the rest of the year. Look for file boxes - not too large - ones you can easily carry around. If the price is right, you may be able to get one for each surname you are currently working on. Time to organize all that paper on the guest bed and dinning room table!! Take a trip to the store and see what may help solve some of your organizational problems. Set a timer for 10 to 15 minutes and use that time to file and organize your papers. You will be surprised how much filing you can get done in 15 minutes. If I only listened to my own advice!!! For important items use only acid free / archival quality products. You will find these items on sale over the next few months. Happy Hunting, Kathie Mirabella Macoupin County, IL Mail List Manager http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmacoup/macoupin.htm

I know it's still a little over 5 months away from Christmas, but with the back-to-school sales that are currently or will be going on, you may want to hint to the kids and grandkids to buy a few extra and give it to you as a Christmas present. The younger ones won't be spending that much money. They'll be giving you something which you can use and give them the feeling that they helping you with the research. Besides who wants another dust collector or something that you have to find a place for even though it doesn't go with your decor or is something you just don't care for. You can also make a list of publications (with all the particulars) that you would like to have for your personal library collection. Just hope that if two or more are buying anything that they coordinate with each other to avoid duplications. You just saved time for the kids, especially those who work outside the home and have limited time for shopping, and made their Christmas shopping less hectic.

Good points Kathy. In addition to the acid free items, remember that most school ink pens are not acid free. When identifying those photos be sure to use an acid free pen. You can get some in sets of various colors and use a different color for each surname. If the photos get mixed up then all you have to do is look at your pen ink key and easily know which group that color belongs to especially if the individuals do not have the branch surname. Now all you have to do is to remember to tell the other members of the family that items found in a particular place are not for their general use so that they will be available for you when you make that trip to the library, the cemetery or a relative's house for an interview or regular visit hoping to learn something new.

Gloria I think I found the answer you're seeking. I did a search on MIT's geological nameserver site. I found that is not one but two towns in TX called Goodnight - one in Navarro Co and the other in Armstrong Co. Navarro Co is SE of the Dallas-Ft Worth area. Armstrong is in the Pandhandle area of TX. I found an article which is on the Bunker Hill Public Library's site regarding Charles Goodnight Jr. It goes into some depth about him. The last sentence is "He was buried next to Mary in the panhandle town of Goodnight, Texas." Thus he's buried in Armstrong Co TX. There is also a photo of the gravestone for Charles Goodnight Sr. I don't know the author of the article personally, but knowing his/her family, I'm sure that permission could be obtained to have the photo put on the Macoupin Co site or even linking if not reproducing with credit the article on the Macoupin Co site.

On the online death certificate index and images of Arizona death records, it does show that Charles Goodnight died in Pima county, Tucson and is buried in Clarindon, Texas.
