Hello,

I am a genealogist and while on a research trip high in the mountains of
Nevada at the famous silver & gold town of Virginia City, found the grave of
Albert Perrin. Whenever I am on a trip I photograph any grave that has a location
on it hoping I can help someone out there. Amazingly, I have had requests
from all over the world and many successful lines hooked up.

This grave was in the Virginia City Cemetery. Virginia City is high in the
mountains out of Reno, Nevada. Also, on the grave is mentioned, Bodie,
California. Bodie was another very famous mining town, about five hours from
Virginia City and is now a ghost town run by the state of California. It is also at
a high elevation. If this is part of anyone's family I'm happy to send a copy
to them.

"Albert Perrin
Died
In Bodie Cal.
May 30, 1879
Aged 51 years
4 months 5 days.
Native of Lowell Mass."

Regards,
Karen Bennett
