Debbi, in 2000 I visited the funeral home and at that time they said that I could not search their records. But if I would give them just one name they would pull this information our for me. I told them my Lacy family records would go back more than 100 years and this did not seem a problem to them, but again they would only look up one name. They did not mention that any records had been destroyed. Sometimes a death certificate does not give the cemetery and a funeral home would have that, plus the location of the plot. This would be a really big help. An example, my g.g.g.grandfather Jordan Lacy and wife Nancy Anderson Lacy might be buried at the Lacy cemetery. Since, there are at least 2 sunken graves with no stone, we don't know who is buried there. It could be them, or they could be buried around Malden or Four Mile, etc. Lately when I went through the MO death certificate site, it really helped to pull family connections together. And answered the question of who James Lacy was. Although some records have him as James Conor Lacy or James E, he really was James Buchanan Lacy. They must be the same people because all the records have Sarah Catherine Elder as his wife and are buried at the Lacy Cemetery.
