Chas Unless your weather has been extremely mild, I can't see getting out in the snow to see such. There were those who questioned my sanity when I came to visit cemeteries in New York in March, 2003. The snow in DeRuyter's SDB church cemetery was knee deep, yet there I was slogging through to hopefully find some WILCOX relatives. While I did find some WILCOX graves they were not the ones I was seeking. I had been one summer many years ago to another cemetery on a hill west of DeRuyter, I think that direction is correct, where some MAINE relatives are buried, but no WILCOXes I could find just tramping through the rather large cemetery. While the MAINE relatives are buried there I've yet to figure out how they fit into my family for all my father could tell me is that they were cousins of his mother, who was a PARKHURST. Our jonquils (yellow Easter flowers) have been up and blooming for about a week now. Tim

Slogging through the snow in DeRuyter's SDB cemetery reminded me to ask this question: Dpes anyone know if there is a master list online of the burials in that cemetery? The names we search for in DeRuyter are Bailey, Rowe, Sutton, Tripp, Deo, Frazier, Albro.

Tim, If I remember correctly you are over six feet tall. If the snow was up to your knees it was up to my hips at me being five feet three inches. Then there was my Carebear spaniel who got totally covered. It sure was fun anyway. Much more memorable than strolling through the cemetery through the posies on a warm sunny day. Also better exercise to have to shovel out the tomb stones. I can't remember what your cousin did. I don't think he was with us in the snow banks.
