Hi, I am looking for the burial site for the wife of Wilbur Centennial Moore (Cennie). He died 1943 and is buried in Elmwood. If his wife Minnie is buried there I need her dates. She was born abt 1870 and died after him. Thanks, Patricia

Patricia, Am glad to get this persons full name. I will correct his name in my Elmwood Cemetery burial card database. The burial cards show: Moore, Cermie age 67; buried 4-8-1943, born OH, died Elyria, resided in Elyria. Lot 5024, map page 12. Moore, Minnie M age 74; buried 7-17-1946, born MI, resided Elyria. Lot 5024, map page 12. Please note, these are not death dates but the burial dates. I can tell you from Elyria deaths database, that Cennie was born Feb. 7, 1876 in Avon Lake, Lorain Co. OH and died April 6, 1943 in Elyria. His home was at 572 Cleveland St. Elyria at the time. Before moving to Elyria, he lived and framed out on Murray Ridge Rd. Alas, there are no markers or numbers at Elmwood to give anyone a since of direction. There are cemetery maps at the city hall and at the cem office. Over six years ago, I had a map made for myself, about $75.00, plus S&H, then had it laminated. BTW, the burial cards do not indicate if there are any grave markers/tombstones at burial sites. To find your lot 5024: 1- drive along North Ridge road at the cemetery. This road runs somewhat at an angle. 2- enter the next cemetery driveway that is east of the center drive. (The center drive is the one going directly up to the chapel but is unmarked) 3- You now will be heading north on this drive. 4- Be looking on the west side (your left side) the Lot 5024 should be about 1/3 of the way, on the left, before you get to the next drive that crosses your drive. This is as close as I am able to direct you via this email system. Good luck. Let me know if you locate it. Hoping everyone knows N,S,W,E directions. --- Patricia Strebig <pstrebig@eriecoast.com> wrote: > I am looking for the burial site for the wife of > Wilbur Centennial Moore (Cennie).
