Reference is made to MO-CEMETERIES-D Digest V01 #73. There were 4 messages in this Digest all with the same subject "Wilson Cemetery in Ripley Co. MO". Believe it or not, not one of these messages had anything to do with Wilson Cemetery, one asked a question on how close to Ripley, Mo was Carrollton, while two were questions about individual connections Wilson surname connections while the 4th had nothing to do with the other three notes. To answer the first query: The Wilson Cemetery being referred to is in RIPLEY CO., MISSOURI which is in the south eastern part of state near the boot heel, while Carrollton Missouri is the County seat of CARROLL CO. which is in the western part of the state east of Kansas City. I would estimate that it is close to 250 miles between these two points. There are 15 WILSON CEMETERIES in Missouri, CAMDEN CO., CLAY CO., COLE CO., GENTRY CO., HOLT CO., LACLEDE CO., LAWRENCE CO., MADISON CO., MILLER CO., NEWTON CO., RIPLEY CO., STONE CO., WASHINGTON CO., and 2 in LINCOLN CO. The above Cemetery located in LAWRENCE CO, was probably next to the WILSON UNION CHURCH, the is also a WILSONS CREEK church in Greene County, there may be a cemetery next to the church. There is also a WILSONTOWN CHURCH in Adair Co., which may have a cemetery next to the church. Without a good map of the state you are working, you cannot hope to find all these small towns, cemeteries, and other points of interest. The best and cheapest place to obtain one is from the Visitors Bureau, they are FREE. They will even mail it to you at no charge. Do yourself a favor and make your subject match the subject matter of your note.
