Mt. Calvary is in the City of Lawrence, and is immediately west of the large Oak Hill cemetery. The St. Johns Catholic Cem. is about 1 mile east of Lawrence along Route 10. It is in section 4, Twp. 13, range 20, if you have a county land map. Per note in the Franklin cem. records, some of the burials at Franklin were later moved to Lawrence's Mt. Calvary. From the Dg. Co. Cemetery book, it would appear that there are tombstones existing in Mt. Calvary for your Lavelle members. There is only a reference to the civil war record mentioned in the Franklin records and it was by records from Susan Alexander of Lawrence, rather than any direct cemetery or tombstone records.
