Judy, The cemeteries in Manito are Oak Grove and Meadow Lawn. I checked the indexes for both, but did not find your Samuel. There were a lot of Woodley listings in Meadow Lawn, but all of them were born after 1854, The only Samuel listed shows 1854-1932. Oak Grove had two Woodings, Caroline (1848-19180 and C.W. (no dates). I checked the rest of the Volume I but did not find him. I have several family lines in Mason Co. and have found that a lot of the men were not found in the listings. The were often buried on the land they owned with no headstone, or never marked.

I am looking for the date of death on Samuel Woodling or Woodley. He was born 9/19/1820 and lived in Manito and he may have died around 1912. Some of his family is buried in both of these cemeteries. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Judy ==== ILMASON Mailing List ==== Visit Mason County, ILGenWeb: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilmason/
