I don't think I answered you question: Augusta and Parker are side by side, there is a space for at least 2 more graves below them, then below that are Earl and Madelyn, the plot is rectangular - long on the sides and narrow on the top/bottom - like 2 graves wide and at least 3 graves long - if that makes sense...? | |

| Skelton's
I found an Earl and a Madelyn Skelton with the Connor's. Also Hannah's headstone says 'Augusta' and PF's says 'Parker', although the cemetery office has him listed as Frank. I will up load now. Oh, Hanna, Parker, Earl and Madelyn are in section 14, lot 23 and Rose and Patrick are in section 14 lot 8. Also, there are at least 2 unmarked graves in this lot, it might be the children you were looking for. | |

also, Bluff City Cemetery was established in 1889 - before that burials were done at the old Channing Street cemetery - which was mostly moved - but the children were most likely buried at the 'Old Cem' here's an interesting article: http://www.elginhistory.com/dgb/ch25.htm
and here's Find A Grave's page: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=cr&CRid=2185874 | |

called the cemetery - they have a Frank Conner d. 1932 buried by Hannah. No Alfred or Willie. Rose and Patrick Skelton are there, but no Ammos Rupert. They might have been confused about Ammos - I'll have a look around, and I forgot to ask about Anna Lewis - do you have access to a fax machine? You could probably send a list to Bluff City and get more complete info than I might - the fax is (847) 931-6642 - I'll let you know who I find, it'll be today or tomorrow. ~Anne

do you have memorials made for these people? do you know death dates? I can go to the library and look up obits if you have more info - are they all at Bluff City Cem. or is that just a guess? The more info I have the better - thanks! ~Anne | |
