Information provided from death certificate found on ancestry.com....death certificate states buried in Cook Cemetery...Cook Cemetery is now New Lancaster cemetery...see cemetery notes.
NOTE: As of 10/14/2017...in order to clarify the location of John's burial, I did a bit of research. After that research, it is clear that John Lee and his wife, Catherine Cook Lee are buried in the New Lancaster Cemetery, formerly known as the Cook Cemetery, just outside New Lancaster, Indiana on East 350 South...I used photos of their headstone, maps of Elwood City, the Elwood Cemetery, New Lancaster township and Cook/New Lancaster Cemetery to verify the information...it is clear that the burial is in an area where there is more farmland than city and that can only be the Cook/New Lancaster Cemetery. Please feel free to ask questions if you have concerns!!
