~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mr. May no doubt is interred at Dry Creek. However, the cemetery office burned to the ground in the mid-1960s, and took the card catalog of grave locations with it. The staff walked the rows of graves, and made a map of who was where, according to the stones. The locations of those individuals in Pioneer who had no marker are not known anymore. Their location is lost. Mr. May's designation of 000-00 for a grave location is the designation used on their website to indicate an individual who is there, but whose location is not known. The Pioneer section is really very beautiful. He is in it. Somewhere. -- Sue Ann Harfst
