One thing one needs to realize is that some of these cemeteries are in the middle of nowhere. They are thick forests filled with many creatures. The best time to clear out a forgotten cemetery is in the cool weather when many of the ticks, spiders, snakes, etc. are dormant. I had walked out to one cemetery thinking I would be able to get in and it was impossible. Just the walk from the main room - I had three ticks. So, timing is important. -----Original Message----- From: Thelma Nation [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, October 18, 2005 10:45 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [MO-CEM] cleaning old Cemeterys Great News!

sorry, have not seen them on my journey sorry no help! good luck. Kim

Elmwood is a very interesting cemetery. The front part, bordering Truman Road, is well-kept, but the back part is not that well kept. DON'T venture into the cemetery alone. It is not in a good part of town and druggies are known to hang out there. I'm fascinated with cemeteries, so when I was a student at the Seminary diagonally across the street from the cemetery, I decided to drive through there one day and a car pulled in behind me and tailed me all the way through the cemetery. I never went into the place again. It was then I learned that city cemeteries can be dangerous places to visit, especially if one is alone. Jennie

Well for months I have talking about the Proctor cemetery in Grundy county needing cleaning and nothing happened was getting so disappointed. Today I got 2 very great emails . One from the Boy Scout leader that he had a Eagle Scout that had started cleaning it . And another one from Jasons girl friends mother telling me what they have gotten done so far. . I was so excited over this news tonight. Next there will have to be funds to fix stones next year but things have started I am so thankful that the work has started. Loretta

My g.grandfather and family disappear from all British records after 1883 and I believe they emigrated to the USA. They were John Clarence Prichard and his wife Priscilla (both born 1850 Salford, Lancashire, England) and children Elizabeth Maud (b.1871), Margaret (b.1878), Robert Henry (b.1881) and Alice( b.1883). Ancestry.com says that a John Clarence and a Robert Henry Prichard appear in the Cooper County (MO) cemetery records. I have so far been unable to trace these names and the lead could be false. Help! Thank you, Brian

Billie, I will try to help you....not that I am any good at it, but I sure don't mind trying. I'll sure start paying attention to the name Isaac when I am looking at the lists of the many Smith names.

OK!!!-- MAYBE you can help me with my Smith----Greenbury or Greenberry Smith b-1822 IN ,d- after 1870 MO census? --married Nancy Frances b-1824 TN, d- after 1863 IL ?--Children were Mary M. b -1846 IL----Keziah Jane (my ggrandmother) b-1848 IL, d-Dec. 12, 1927 St. Joseph, MO ---Sarah E. b-1850 IL---David b-Sept 1853 IL---Nancy E. b-1858 IL---Irene b-1863 IL-- What I think is that after Nancy died they moved to Holt Co. MO were Keziah Jane was married July 9, 1871 in Oregon, MO to Joseph Cortney Story b-May 21, 1836 OH, d-Jan 16, 1888 St.Joseph, MO. (both are buried in Oakland Cemetery (also called Ashland Cemetery) My grandfather would never talk about his father and I do not know why. I found out that Joseph was a Confederate Soldier and his brother was a Union Soldier so that could be the trouble. I would like to know who Greenbury,s parents are -also when and where he is buried. I think Nancy Frances was a (Halloway??) Would also like to find her parents and where she died and is buried. David moved back to IL and married Mary b-Oct 1859 WV and had two children Jesse b-April 1879 IL, Harry b-Sept 1891 IL. Lets hope that we can get these Smiths in the right places sometime. Thanks Donna [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected])
