Hi,
My husband is the secretary/treasurer for the Blue Grass Cemetery and we have the official record for the cemetery. We are currently in Texas but as soon as we get home -- probably by the end of the week -- I will be happy to look for the MOELLERs buried in Blue Grass. If you don't hear from me in two weeks' time, please jog my memory!

Hello,
I am also searching for death and burials of gg grandparents in Scott CO.
They were Samuel and Mary Moore bor in Ireland in 1788 and 1790. They lived
in LeClair township and were on the 1850 & 1860 census and Samuel was on
the 1870 census living with Margaret Stewart (his daughter). Mary must have
died between 1860-70 and Samuel between 1870-1880. Could anyone tell me
what cemeteries I could look at? I found Margaret and her Husband (Stewart)
at Jack's cemetery, but neither of the older Mo

Looking for a death date or obituary for Leota Artisha Hatfield Gripp. She died between 1991 and 2000 according to the obituaries of her siblings. She was married to Frank Gripp of Davenport. She was the daughter of Robert Hatfield and Bertha Parris.
Johann George August Moeller married Dora Hoffmann in 1858 in
Davenport. He was born in 1834 in Ferrentin, Mechlenburg and died in
Davenport in 1905. He is said to have immigrated in 1855. He was a
fisherman on the south edge of Davenport.
I have been unable to identify any of his ancestral family or siblings
but would like to do so.
