Thank you everyone for the responses to my query regarding my gr grandmother's grave site. (Nancy Jane Smith 1860-1925). I am sure that she is buried in the Dobson Cemetery (aka Carlton-Brethren Cemetery) in Tama county, Iowa. I am thinking that no one ever bothered to buy a stone for her grave and I am having a hard time finding someone that can help me figure out where exactly in that cemetery she is buried. There are other family members buried there and I'm sure that she is buried near them but I would like to know exactly where she is. The caretaker of the cemetery does not respond to my calls/letters so I have contacted the county clerks office (not much help there). I am going to be contacting a local funeral home tomorrow and the Tama county genealogical society. I am sure that sooner or later someone, somewhere will have an answer for me. Thanks again for all of your ideas/comments.
