Hi Renee, Linnie and Doreen, I would like to thank you all for your help. This one was a bit confusing with Fernand-Ferdinand marrying a few times, specially with his future daughter-in-law's mother and I was way-off asking for Reine Poirier. Sorry.

MARTINSBURG, W.Va. — Two men have been sentenced on charges of tampering with caskets at a Martinsburg cemetery. Media outlets report that 25-year-old _David P. Bowers III_ (http://www.mysanantonio.com/?controllerName=search&action=search&channel=news/crime&search =1&inlineLink=1&query="David+P.+Bowers+III") of Hedgesville and 30-year-old _Richard R.

it is for a female. I didn't think of it being a male name. For the time frame it's probably Euphemia, if not the full name.

Hello Fran, You don't say whether this is a male or a female. Effie, for a female is usually the straight line diminutive for Ephigenie and Euphemia (as in Effie Gray). But diminutive are not always straight forward, are they ? The less usual names it can be used for are Stephanie, Francis, Francesca, and a few Greek (Elephtheria, comes to mind...) or Italian names...

My great grandmother was named Effie Amanda Palmer, born in Wisconsin in 1866. I believe her given name was Effie, as even the marriage record lists her as Effie A. Palmer, marrying Clarence W. Gibbs in 1890. And one of her grandaughters was named for her (Ferne Effie Gibbs). cheers, Christina Gibbs On Mon, Jul 14, 2014 at 5:33 PM, Fran LaChance <quebec-research@rootsweb.com > wrote: > Hi all > > Can someone give me suggestions of what names Effie might be a derivative? > Boogles my > mind and I can think of nothing that sounds right. > > Thanks a bunch > > Fran L > > > > --- > This email is free from viruses and malware because avast!

FRANKFORT , New York The grass isn’t always greener. Oakview Cemetery in Frankfort has grass that hasn’t been maintained in quite some time. Public Eye was called in to try and fix the problem. The issue The saying is “knee high by the Fourth of July,” but it wasn’t meant to apply to overgrown grass at the cemetery. In an email to Public Eye, a reader pointed out that the grass had not been properly kept for the entirety of the season. The future When Public Eye came to investigate the complaint, the lawn was in the process of being partially mowed. As of Friday, members of the Oakview Cemetery board could not be reached. After contacting Eunice Hanson of the Frankfort Center Cemetery Association, it was discovered that Oakview Cemetery has its own board and isn’t affiliated with the association. Frankfort Town Supervisor Joseph Kinney said the town had received a formal letter from the cemetery board July 7 asking for aid, but the initial bids made by contractors were voted down. The town will ask contractors to again submit bids for the work, and Kinney is confident that the town will be able to move forward soon to help the cemetery with maintaining the property. “We as a town have periodically performed maintenance and the town has absorbed the cost,” Kinney said. “We can’t go in unless they request it. It costs a lot to maintain these cemeteries.” ( When I did this cemetery about 6 years ago, it was in fine shape then, Best Bill)

Hi Gang This coming Thru. 17th, I'll be heading to Rochester, N.Y. for the day in cemeteries. If you need anything from that area, let me know by 7PM Wen. Best Bill providing the weather and my body holds....................

Bastille Day

A committee has been formed to help preserve one of the oldest known cemeteries in Fredericktown. The cemetery has been known by a few different names in the past and has been abandoned for many years. More than 40 years ago most of the headstones marking the graves disappeared. Those headstones belonged to some of the earlier settlers of Fredericktown — some dating back to the mid-1800s. Only a few visible headstones are left, but they are no longer upright and are partially buried themselves. Committee member Renee Sargent-Harrison said when the cemetery was first established, it was actually in Cape Girardeau County. At the time, the deceased were not allowed to be buried within the city limits. “Madison County didn’t even exist yet," Sargent-Harrison said. "This is how old the cemetery really is and no one has really been buried there since the 1900s.” Sargent-Harrison explained that a lady went through the cemetery in the 1920s with a paper and made rectangles. “She marked each name and location of the graves in the cemetery," she said. "If it wasn’t for that we wouldn’t have a lot of the information.” Later, someone else went through the cemetery and performed more research. “The cemetery has gotten lost over time. We are trying to honor those who are buried there,” Sargent-Harrison said. She added the group’s mission now is to come up with a marker to show the name of the cemetery, its history and a photograph. “We will also have a list of the names of those buried in there,” Sargent-Harrison said. She went on to say that the corner has been surveyed and the group is working on cleaning it up and adding the monument at the entrance along with the name of the cemetery. “We have found the cemetery has had a couple of names," Sargent-Harrison said. "It was the Old Methodist Cemetery, because there was an old Methodist Church there at one time. It was also the First Town Cemetery.” Other names for it were the Newberry Cemetery and Fredericktown Founders Cemetery. Sargent-Harrison said it was deeded in Feb. 26, 1828 for $1 as part of Cape Girardeau County in the city of Fredericktown. She said the Methodist church was next to the cemetery and owned it at one time, but the church is no longer there. Then the cemetery was deeded to the city of Fredericktown, which still owns it and maintains it. There have been many discussions over the years about who actually owns the property. Joe Honerkamp has lived across the street from the lot for more than 40 years. He recalls the discussions shortly after he moved in about who owned and was supposed to maintain the property. According to Honerkamp, it was originally thought to be church-owned, but two separate congregations each claimed the other owned it. When the area became overgrown, Honerkamp recalls how he and three other neighbors cared for a quarter of the cemetery to keep it from becoming too overgrown. Honerkamp said he heard the cemetery was on city property. After he contacted city hall, it was discovered the cemetery was given to the city in 1952. For whatever reason, the decision was made to remove the headstones marking the burial sites. It’s believed that decision was made in order to make it easier to care for the cemetery. “I didn’t realize what was going on," Honerkamp recalled. "I came home from work and they were all gone." The headstones were thought to be taken to a local landfill, but they’ve never been located. Fredericktown Alderman Rick Polete brought up the cemetery during a recent board of aldermen meeting and said they just wanted to bring the committee to everyone’s attention because of their work on the project. Committee member Ruth Ann Skaggs said their group is working on raising money for the project. “We have some money, but we will start working to raise more money to help pay for the project,” she said. Sargent-Harrison said this is a big project and the group is moving forward. “Right now we are looking for anyone with information about the tombstones or historical information about the cemetery or those buried there." She said they have had a family from St. Louis already contact them with some information. There are about 80 people believed to be buried in the cemetery and there may be some soldiers from around the time of the Civil War buried there. Sargent-Harrison said if anyone has information about the cemetery, they can contact her or Skaggs, Collin Follis or Dwayne Ellis. The group can be reached through the Madison County Historical Society at raskaggs_2000@yahoo.com or 573-783-2722.
