I am looking for the grave of my ggrandmother, Sallie Mitchell Smith Hobbs
(1843-1927). I just received a copy of her Death Certificate and it says
"Burial: Bethel Cemetery" Today I drove from Philadelphia to the Bethel
Cemetery on Line Rd near the Bethel UM Church. Question: If the death
occurred in Salisbury and the arrnagements were by Holloway, is this the only
Bethel Cemetery the certificate would have referred to? She was a Mitchell
by birth and her people were from the Gumboro area, so this Bethel seemed
logical. Is there any way to query thr cemetery caretaker as to unmarked
graves? There were two large Mitchell plots in this cemetery.

Any help would be appreciated.
