I don't know. I'm hoping someone from back there will tell us.

I am looking for someone who is willing to do lookups for a George Taylor, who lived around Plymouth, IN. It is reported that he died 22 Sep 1873.
I am interested in his obit, tombstone pic, biographies, land records, probate records, etc.
He had many (17+) children and many wives, of which I am trying to sort out in order to go further. He was located in Marshall Co., in 1840 and in OH in 1820. I believe he left OH in the early 1830's and could have been in Rush Co., IN before coming to Marshall.

Just want to give an update regarding John Klinghammer and his wife, Magdalena (Herdt) Klinghammer. The Herdt family has been difficult to trace due to all the various spellings, however, I have found when Magdalena and her family arrived, using clues in John's obituary.
At age 15, John (name was mis spelled as Klinkhammer in the passenger list) and the Herdt's (spelled as HAERETH in the passenger list), arrived in New York, embarking from the port of Havre, in France. The family is listed in volume 17
Recently, I discovered that my 5th great grandfather was buried in Argos Cemetary in 1870/1873. Then I came across information that said the cemetary had been turned into a the Argos Memorial Park and some of the graves were removed and the stones were razed.
Could anyone give me more info regarding this occurance? Also, what happened to the graves and stones that were not moved by private individuals? It is very sad that these things happen. A picture of the stone might have clarified the year of deat
I had not heard of the moving of bodies in that cemetery. Many of my
ancestors are also buried there -- in fact, most of the people in the cemetery seem
to be connected to my family. What are your family names? I have a print out
of the burials there.
