Betty,
I found Margaret (McIntosh) Ward 1876-1973, wife of George W. Ward buried in the Alfalfa cemetery. George W. Ward, 11 Jan 1869-11 Nov 1952 is also buried there. I have access to an obituary for George but would have to go to the newspaper office and search for an obituary for Margaret. I believe there are relatives of Margarets living in Carnegie. If I'm right Merle Hensley is a daughter.
I also found a Luther Snellgrave and an Opal Snellgrove in the Alfalfa community. If you think these

cemetery.If any one knowes anything I need help
Lillian,
Thank you so very much for the information. If and when you do have time to do the lookups I would greatly appreciate it. The spelling for Snellgrive that I have very well could be wrong, coming from her brother's newspaper obituary clipping.
The only name that I have for Martha is just that. It very well could be that she went by another name.
Thank you for the most generous offer and many leads for me to follow.

David, do you have any further information on the Westhafer family? I'm searching for information on Daisy Grace Lewis and Francis Westhafer family. The reply to your message mentioned a Daisey F. Ames - who might have been named for Daisy Lewis Westhafer?? SSDI says Daisy Westhafer b. 1886 d. 1981.
Possibly Elizabeth Westhafer Ames was a sister of Francis? I believe Daisy Lewis was born in Washington Co., Iowa.
