A call to the cemetery gave me their locations: Nain lot 388. My ggf ANTON AAMOT d. 27 Nov 1944 My gm GERTRUDE KOHL d. 20 Sep 1947 Can't find my ggm KAREN AAMOT. The receptionist who answered said she wasn't there. She isn't on the online lists, possible died after 1948. There are other burials and a stone. Anyone know of someone to take photographs, would be willing to pay expenses. Also, has anyone had any experience with getting information from a funeral home? They both were at the same funeral home and it is still in business, Halvorsen. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

There are other burials and a stone. Anyone know of someone >to take photographs, would be willing to pay expenses. Go to the wonderful Find A Grave web site: http://www.findagrave.com/ and ask for a volunteer to take the pictures for you. I have been well served with NO expenses by volunteers. Just remember, most of these folks are cemetery buffs, not necessarily genealogy oriented. So don't do what I did. Do NOT forget to politely ask the volunteer for a picture of the stone AND a close up of any inscriptions. When I got my first "volunteer" pictures, I could see that there was writing, but I couldn't read it. I had to embarrass myself and ask my volunteer to make another trip. Hope this helps, Joe
