Bio and Links
Bio Photo With this site being named 'Find A Grave', 100% of my entries tell how to actually find the grave, along with a photo of the monument.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I'm employed as a mortician with Lindstrom Funeral Homes in Creso.

Please contact me if you would like the persons obituary or any other biographical information listed or photos added.

If you see any mistakes or errors in my postings, please let me know and I'll make corrections.

Feel free to contact me at lansingiowa@yahoo.com if you have comments, questions or corrections.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

I'm trying to list all the burials with biographies and photos that I can for my ancestors/relatives. This includes the sirnames of Heit, Boellerschen, Papenheim, Lange, Grimm and Zmoos. Most of my relatives are buried in the following three cemeteries; St. Johns Lutheran (Stapleton) a few miles west of Waucoma, St. Mary's Cemetery New Hampton and a few in St. Mary's Cemetery in North Washington.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The following is a listing of the cemeteries that I photographed each monument in it and the date I finished posting them to Find A Grave. Each cemetery did have at least a few monuments where I could not read the last name on it, and therefore did not post.

Thanks so much for the picture of little Sue's headstone. I posted the memorial for a friend of ours and Sue was the little sister she never knew. I know how thrilled she'll be to see your photo.

Would it be possible to transfer memorials of the Eggleston family to me. My great grandparents are Lewis and Josephine Eggleston. I would appreciate it. I got to go to New Hampton from Ohio in 2009 for the first time. Thank you, Sherry

RE: Transfers
Lukes are the grandparents. They would be in-laws to Melvin Mlady, but I don't remember their names right off hand. I know there are a gazillion Lukes there! I'll let you know later.
Thanks again! Michelle will be so excited. Her mother is still living there.
