I know where Charles is buried and Thomas is probably in Oakland Cemetery also in an unmarked grave. Tom died 1850 - 1859 and Charles in 1862. Mr. Slattery told me he died in the Battle of Antietam. Since my grandmother was an orphan at an early age, we really did not know for sure he was in the war. > > Thanks for any information about the survival of funeral home records. > > Charlie Neal Gee > > > ==== LACADDO Mailing List ==== > US-IMMIGRANTS-PRE-1800 mailing list > http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/other/Immigration/US-IMMIGRANTS-PRE-1800.html > > ============================== > Gain access to over two billion names including the new Immigration > Collection with an Ancestry.com free trial.
