Thank you for the dates, I have added them. Is this a relative of yours? If he is, I would be happy to transfer to you. | | | Tricia Partridge

 | RE: Frederick Shrake
I did not see a marker for Margaret. I suspect it is possible one is there and could be buried under soil. I had to unearth much of Frederick's marker to take the picture. | | | Suzanne Erickson
 | One more thought on Clark stone
Priscilla,
I have been taking photos for FindAGrave for almost 6 yrs now, and I do the best I can. I have had literally no complaints, but if you want me to delete what I did, I can do so and you can put out another photo request for that stone. You might get someone else to take the photo as I know there is at least one other volunteer in this area. It won't hurt my feelings. I have learned through my many years here to appreciate any photo that is taken for me when I request a photo. But if what I took is not to your liking, you are sure free to put it out there again. I really don't think angle will make a difference with the horrible faded stone that Melvina had. Do you know the history of Cedar Lake Cemetery and how it came to be? It's quite interesting. If you want to know more, let me know. | | | Suzanne Erickson
| Melvina Head Stone
Priscilla,
I was more than happy to help you out with the photos at Cedar Lake Cemetery. The photo you have in question on Melvina's stone is really not readable. It was a headstone that had both her and her husbands info on it. Where Cedar Cemetery sits, there is virtually no protection from the north out here on the prairie. That is the side that her stone faced. Her hubby's writing faces to the west which does not get near the weathering that the north does here, especially in our brutal Minnesota winters.
I can return and try, but I really don't think it is readable, at least not all of if. If you want me to return and try aluminum foil rubbing I can do that. We are also getting very close to our photo opportunities closing here with our winter just around the corner. If you want me to return, I can, but it has to be soon. I will soon shut down my photo taking until April or May of 2010 due to snow and bitter cold.
I did the best I could with what was left to read on her stone. But, if you want me to try more, let me know. Those old stones literally fade away to nothing 100 yrs down the road, and that is the point where the Clark stone is at.
