I purchased the book at the Portage County Historical society and it is 329 pages with both Edinburg and Palmyra cemeteries. The Palmyra section is 187 pages. I could purchase the book and mail it to you if you would like. The book was $29.75 plus whatever the cost of postage to mail it to you. Otherwise I'd be happy to look up any names and e-mail that information back to you. ----- Original Message ----- From: "shirley a whitfield" <sandj31@juno.com> To: <OHPORTAG-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 27, 2002 8:58 PM Subject: Re: [OHPORTAG-L] Re:Davis Family in Portage County (Palmyra) > BONITA, IS THERE ANY WAY THAT YOU CAN SEND ME WHAT YOU HAVE FOR THE > PALMYRA CEMETERY.
