Thank you Juanita. I will drop a note to Lawnview. This has been a very elusive ancestor. I finally found out that he passed away in New Jersey and obituary said he was being buried in Odd Fellows Cemetery in Philadelphia. Guess he moved to New Jersey after his 2nd wife died, probably with another ancestor I have yet to locate. Any information I find gets me a little closer. Thanks again.

Family members were moved to Lawnview in 1951/52. No markers were moved unless family members knew of the move and paid for the stones to be moved. Lawnview does have records of the orginal Odd Fellow plots and can tell you the present locations. They charged me $20 per surname search. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Barbara Curry" <BarbTCurry@msn.com<mailto:BarbTCurry@msn.com>> To: <PHILLY-ROOTS@rootsweb.com<mailto:PHILLY-ROOTS@rootsweb.com>> Sent: Tuesday, May 29, 2007 1:46 PM Subject: [Phly-Rts] Odd Fellows Cemetery > My great grandfather was buried at Odd Fellows Cemetery in Philadelphia. > His obituary states he was buried at Odd Fellows Cemetery, Phil., > Saturday, Dec. 29, 1917.
