I believe the correct cemetery is Valle Spring Cemetery ID: 32068.
John is listed in Mortuary Record of the Valle Spring Roman Catholic Cemetery.
I think when it first opened it was called something else but later changed to Valle Spring.
Felix Valle was one of the leading citizens and merchants and certainly the wealthiest man in town in the late 1800's. His wife, the former Odile Pratte, became one of the old town's major characters in her own right.
She also had the distinction of being the last person buried in the old Memorial Cemetery. Due to overcrowding and health concerns, further burials were banned in 1882. The widow couldn't stand the thought of not lying beside her husband and struck a deal with the city fathers. She agreed to donate a large tract of land near Valle Spring for construction of a new cemetery - if she were allowed to be interred beside her husband. Her proposal was accepted. The Valle Spring Cemetery is still in use today.
