I have 3g grandparents who are buried in different cemeteries, maybe 10 miles apart. Why?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08519895209103937190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6174500248007336079.post-89495824046811904932012-05-01T11:15:01.040-04:002012-05-01T11:15:01.040-04:00We had trouble finding my 3rd great grandmother.

In calling the cemetery office they verified he was buried beside her. <br />Another place we found a couple noted to be buried in cemeteries 20-30 miles apart.It bothered me think these two were married and raised a large number of children and were not together in death. After much researching we found them together with many of their children buried in a different cemetery. <br />We also found my great grandmother buried with her first husband (she married three times) and a married(?) daughter. So their stone had three people with different last names buried together. <br />See: http://restinginwestmoreland.blogspot.com/2011/05/mystery-monday-would-you-want-to-know.html<br /><br />If possible calling the cemetery office or checking out church records can help. <br />I found a cemetery record in the local library's Pennsylvania Room. The original records at the church in the cemetery had been burned. So keep researching it's all so exciting. The more you find the more questions you dig up!<br />We love your blog, BTW!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05518890375693422685noreply@blogger.com
