    1. A bit more on NF cemeteries

    3. Since we're on the subject of cemeteries in Niagara Falls, I'll share a bit more of my experience there last week. Not only was Linnea a wonderful source of information at Oakwood, where most of my family now resides, but my search extended to other cemeteries for a couple of missing relatives. Since they were not Roman Catholic, I was advised that there were probably only three possible choices: Oakwood, in the city of Niagara Falls, and Riverdale or Memorial Park in Lewiston. Linnea gave me the phone number for the Riverdale office (716-285-4968) and a helpful person named Mary checked her records. When she could not locate the people I was looking for, she offered to call Memorial Park (716297-0811). The result was finding my mother's elusive Aunt Jennie at Memorial Park, a significant discovery because now I know her date of birth in England, and am getting closer to learning about my maternal grandmother's parents' emigration. These cemeteries are a wonderful source of information! Elsa in Allegany County, Maryland
