    1. Re: [ILMACOUP] Benld City and Bunker Hill Cemetery maps?

    3. Gloria What surnames are being searched for in Bunker Hill Cemetery?  My grandfather was the caretaker of the cemetery back in the 1950's and I often walked the cemetery when he was there and have walked it many times since.  I may recognize the names and be able to tell where the lots are. I inquired about the map several years ago from one of the board members and was told the same story.  In the past year or so, one board member died, one lost her husband and the other is in poor health from what I understand too.  I have no idea who they got to replace the deceased member, but know that the other two board members are in their 80's.  One lives just down the road from my mother.  I told the librarian several years ago that they should try to get a copy of the map for use in the genealogy area since the listing of burials provides the lots and would save phone calls to the board members as well as giving people an idea as to where to go when they leave the library.  I guess either the board members didn't approve it or were not approached with the request.  I just may call the one board member and see if she can help get a copy of the map to the library.  If not, perhaps I can get approval to go to the office and draw up something which can be placed at the library.

To: ILMACOUP@rootsweb.com Date: Sunday, July 5, 2009, 8:54 AM Does anyone know of a stone map for Benld City and/or Bunker Hill Cemeteries? ======================= I am looking for maps and locations for a couple family members in Benld Cemetery. Do you know where I could go for this?  I am also working on Bunker Hill.  I spoke to someone on the cemetery board who says there is only 1 big map on a wall in an office that they rarely visit.  No maps to hand out.  The library does have a listing of names and locations.  I have several people there.  I have driving in from St. Louis twice now and did alot of walking and have found several but still have many to find. Suggestions?
