RE: Caspar Buberl
the way to really know is to call the office . I gave you the number. I know the old like the palm of my hand. for over 25 years. never saw that photo at st raymonds. people accidentally post other photo's on a memorial. unless it came from some other source. The office might have to call you back. due to old red books have to be pulled. just then them GRANDFATHER . they know genealogy and want to charge. we ask for locations we have the maps. it's a totally mystery to me.Good Luck.
