    1. Re: [ALL] Moving bodies from a cemetery
    2. >Mary Ann I have been trying to get the local Methodist Episcopal Historical Center to look for the records of the cemetery. Its in the process of looking. I would like very much if you could scan and send me the April 16, 1905 article if possible to support my request for them to search. In the mean time. On or about April 27, 1927 the remain bodies (about150 I have been told) were lifted and re-interred in Southside Cemetery in a common grave. Norm Meinert has two pictures on his website of the Memorial Stones for those re-buried. A list did exist in a book in the Southside Cemetery of those re-interred. It should still be there. I am hoping that the present staff will look for it and put it on disc. Now it is possible that your Mary Cavanaugh was moved privately. These are the Cavanaugh/Cavnaugh I found in Southside that headstones Mary might be there without a headstone also.
