These two entries for Ira Jasper Ballard appear to be in contradiction:
• Ira Jasper Ballard is buried in Section K, Lot 204, Grave 24 in Maple Grove Cemetery.
• "He is buried in an unmarked grave in Maple Grove Cemetery."
Do you know if that means that the cemetery knows where he is buried, but his grave has no marker?
Sorry to pester you again. I am especially wanting to be sure about the details of this gravesite for Ira Jasper Ballard, since it is my husband's 2G grandfather, who abandoned his family when his many children were young (who nearly starved to death), and later committed suicide, despite being a Quaker Friend, and the son of a Quaker minister. I want to be sure to record his burial location accurately.
