I was able to find my ggg grandfathers burial place AND I am now in contact with my fourth cousin and he was thrilled to receive a letter from me. He is on the Board of Directors of the Stearns Cemetery, Vermilion County, Illinois where my family is buried. I just wanted to share my success story. As you all know we spend many years doing research and if you find one item a month it is wonderful. I feel I "Hit The Jackpot". What a great ending of 2003 and new beginnings for 2004. In searching this database I did find a lot of people that were buried in Vermilion County that were born in Indiana even though they died in Illinois. It might be worthwhile to take a look. > Check the Pape Mortuary site for their database.
