It's directly south of the intersection of US 231 and SR 157 and is a large cemetery, hard to miss. I don't know about an administration office - I doubt it - but a more-or-less complete listing of gravestones is included in Lorraine Krause's Cemeteries of Western Greene County. The listing is broken down by section, row, and gravesite which should make locating a grave fairly easy. I don't have a copy of the book but perhaps someone else may be able to look it up for you. In Point Commerce, you'll want to check the Hayes Cemetery. Unfortunately, this cemetery is on private property and not open to public access. However, the cemetery is maintained by the Jefferson Township Trustee who can probably arrange for you to visit it. A year or so ago the Trustee was Herman Klass at (815) 875-3543. Another cemetery in the immediate area is the Griffith Cemetery about 1 mile NNE of Point Commerce directly on the edge of US 231. This cemetery is also maintained by Jefferson Twp. and is open to the public as far as I know. I am interested in a John J. Middleton who married my ever-so-great aunt, Manerva Stanley in 1867. I know very little about John except that he apparently died before 1875 when Manerva re-married. John may have had a sister, Mahala Middleton, who married James Griffith in 1860. He may have had a daughter, Celesta, from a previous marriage who was living with Manerva and John Griffith in 1880. I'd certainly appreciate any further information you may have on these folks and would be glad to share anything that I have.
