I am trying to find the exculsive great grandmother. Nellie Mae Chezem. She was born in Springfield in 1890. I have found her in the 1910 census in Barry county. Nothing before or after. Seems she is hiding from me. Anyone know anything about any Chezem's in Springfield or maybe Carthage? thanks in advance. Sharol

Thank you very much.NJ

There is a cemetery in Webb City on a busy street going to Carthage. Has a statue of a saint I think . I think this is a Catholic Cemetery. Does any one know the name and how to find some one buried there. Don't mean to sound stupid, But I can picture it and can not see the name in my mind. Marie
