Suggested edit from contributor Nebr & Dakotas SUVCW: The Information on the gravesite is recorded in the G.A.R. burial records which was turned in at the time of his death, probably by the Post in Blair. That information is on file at the Nebraska History center on microfilm, that is where I recorded it from. I assume he is buried in a lot by his wife, there could be some record on who bought the lot.
