    3. Hi Tim, Shamrock Mills is mid-way between Paxinos and Jacob's Church. If you found the intersection of Shamrock Rd and Friendline Rd, Shamrock runs from the Mill and where it intersects with Friedline, turn south and ends on Rt. 61 where Ghezzies' resturant is located. If your not familiar where Ghezzies' is, it come out on Rt 61 between the Ash Grove church and the road where you turn to the Indian Hills Golf Club. I believe the area there is called Mayfair. On MapQuest, Shamrock Road is LR49116. Are you familiar with MapQuest? Ash Grove Chruch is located on Rt. 61 and these are two different cemeteries. If you need more help in locating the exact location of the church, let me know and I'll make a copy of a map and snail mail it to you. Also, if you would like, I'll go to the cemetery, try to find the tombstone of the person and take a photo of it for you since I live in the local area.

    3. Hello Kay - | Ash Grove Chruch is located on Rt. 61 and these are two different | cemeteries. [Pleasant Hill Cemetery vs. Ash Grove Church Cemetery] Since they are two different cemeteries, then I do have a problem. Not with their location but with a burial. I've received several e-mails during the past week stating the burial place of Jesse TEATS (1814-1896). One says he is buried at Pleasant Hill Cemetery the other that he is buried at Ash Grove United Brethren Cemetery both citing the same secondary source. | Also, if you would like, I'll go to the cemetery, try to find the | tombstone of the person and take a photo of it for you since I live in the | local area. That's a very kind offer. I don't know that a photo is necessary, but knowing in which one of the two cemeteries Jesse TEATS is buried would set the record straight. I have a feeling that others who are following this thread would also like to know the answer. So if it's not raining and there are no tropical storms insight and you feel like a walk, it would be very much appreciated. And, yes I am familiar with 'MapQuest'. I also use DeLormes 'Street Atlas USA' in conjunction with GNIS at www.geonames.usgs.gov . With GNIS I can look up the coordinates of a feature such as a church or cemetery, plug them into Street Atlas USA to print out a map for a future visit. Unfortunately, GNIS doesn't list Pleasant Hill Cemetery. And neither one has any local knowledge. I'll be looking forward to your reply.
