I will, when I make my next visit, try to find the grave the op is looking for. The next time I have some extra time I will go to the Gen Soc and see if I can't do some of the transcription. I'm getting good at it.

I did have luck with the Urians, in a small book, and no luck with Arments or Funks, both bigger books. There seems to be no index by lot. When I asked how they knew if someone was buried in a lot, they replied that they ran a rod down. Certainly my husband's great-grandparents had no stone, and no perpetual care either, so it was not immediately obvious that a lot was occupied. A lot of the cemetery was like that. This is also a fairly large cemetery (in two counties, because it crosses Cobbs Creek -- the boundary), and over a hundred years old. I understand somebody was indexing for the Genealogical Society, but got carpal tunnel syndrome and stopped -- how far along I cannot say.
