Hi, I have an ancestor who died in 1976, and in her obit it states that she was interred in West Cemetery in Grass Lake. But, when I look at the transcriptions online, the burial dates are all prior to 1895. Is there a newer section of this cemetery listed online, or is this an entirely different cemetery? Thanks. ~Michelle

The last sibling, I guess, was Tojzeh--fairly sure that's an improper spelling. I've only heard her name and was told that she was thought to be in a nursing home, at the time, in the vicinity of Pittsburgh. Would you have any good information on the town or region in Poland from which the Drapiewski family came? The time of immigration and circumstances would also be interesting. I'm curious as to whether resettlement to the US might have been prompted by the January Revolution, circa 1864. Thanks for your post. John Draper

They lived in Nanticoke after immigrating from Poland. They had 14 kids. He founded a funeral home on Green Street in Nanticoke. The last surviving sibling passed away 2-3 months ago. The Draper name change fits in there somewhere. I can remember seeing a history that talked about a family falling out that led to the switch to Draper. I'll see if I can find that again.
