Thank you. Did you notice in the item below that Minerva's daughter couldn't have been more than 5 years old when she married Joseph Scott? Here are the accurate dates: Minerva G. Shirley married Samuel DeVorss 1 Nov 1849 Buchanan Co., MO. Minerva DeVorss married Joseph Scott 4 Apr 1852 Buchanan Co., MO. Samuel DeVorss died intestate, and Minerva was appointed to administer his estate 26 Dec 1850 (Richard Shirley security). The final paper was found in late 1852 saying the estate remained unadministered and named Minerva Scott as the administrator. ----- Original Message ----- From: Elizabeth Burnsides To: MOHOLT-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 11:03 AM Subject: Re: [MOHOLT] Oak Hill Cemetery The "Oak Hill" cemetery is the Forbes Cemetery. ----- Original Message ----- From: "pat frunzi" <patfrunzi@comcast.net> To: <MOHOLT-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, March 21, 2005 5:37 PM Subject: [MOHOLT] Oak Hill Cemetery > Does anyone know where this cemetery is? > > Gone Home Volume II page 165: > Mrs M G DeVorss born 20 or 29 July 1829 Monroe County IN died 17 Jan 1892.
