Yes, I suspect that the name of the cemetery may have changed. The
other possibility is that it is/was a small kind of neighborhood
cemetery that is no longer in use. Maybe cared for but not in use.
I pass one of these every day on my way to work. It used to be in a
secluded area but is now surrounded by homes.

The name I'm looking for is Mary Jane Dickey who died on March 30th
1915. I've been to the Mt. Pleasant web site and they have 2
Dickey's listed. One is a Mary but she died in 1974 so I know she's
not the one. They have another listed with no first name and the
burial date of 4/24/1913 in the Edmonton Cemetery.

The 1913 person is a possibility assuming their records are
incorrect. I have both family records and a certified copy of the
death certificate so I know Mary Jane's death was 1915.

One additional piece of info that may or may not pertain is her
address was 9920 81st. Ave. She was also French Canadian born in
the US who married Protestant. I'm assuming as a French Canadian she
may have been Catholic but no idea if she would have been buried in a
Catholic cemetery.

Any additional thoughts?

Thanks
Ernie
