Hi All, I was wondering if anyone on the list lives near the Mountain Park Cemetery in Saint Jo, Montague County, Texas. If so I would love to get photos of headstones with the last name of Rudolph, Herndon and Lee on them (any spelling works). Also, I'm looking for anyone who might know of descendents for Israel and Catherine Greene Rudolph and their children: Mary L., Estella, Louisa, Charles, Nelson, and Myra, all born in Ohio. I would love to link up with these cousins, and any help is much appreciated. Sincerely, Kim Harper Friendship is like a rainbow: Red like an apple, sweet to the core.
