    1. Re: [MNHEN] Fw: South Maple Grove Cemetery
    2. Hi Claudia, I don't believe there is a cemetery there named "South" Maple Grove either. What is the time period for this cemetery? Now or before the turn of the century? Was this a country cemetery (where someone who lived/died nearby was buried) or was the cemetery associated with a specific religion (where s omeone who attended the church -- no mattter where they lived -- was buried?) Maybe more "speculative" research can uncover the correct cemetery. A guess would be that this term might refer to one of the two early cemeteries located in the southern sections of Maple Grove Township. I believe there was one in Section 11, near the Methodist Church, and one in Section 29, near the Catholic Church. They were there about 1890. Karen Whitmer
