Hi, Has anyone ever heard of a cemetery called the Macksburg Cemetery? I went out to Canby today and got an obit for a cousin who died in 1931 and the obit said he was then buried in the Macksburg Cemetery. The funeral was held at the Macksburg Luthern Church it said. I asked all kinds of people in and around Canby and Macksburg and nobody but nobody has ever heard of any Macksburg Cemetery. One old timer from the area said there is only one cemetery in Macksburg and I found out that it is named the Klinger Memorial Cemetery. I finally found that tiny cemetery out there in the woods and it only has a handfull of gravestones. According to The Oregon Burial Site Guide that cemetery was never called the Macksburg Cemetery so I am not sure if that is the right cemetery or not. It MIGHT be and my Gelbrich's who I am looking for the grave for may be there and not have any gravestone?? I also found out from a local in the area that the Gelbrich family's first home which is over a hundred years old is still out there and is only about a half mile from the Klinger Memorial Cemetery.

Nathan, It looks like is in Clackamas Co. I Googled for it and just sent you a map on MapQuest. You go down to Canby on 99E and then turn and go south on hwy 170. At that point Hwy 99 is going to the SW. Good luck! Carole
