Well, it is APRIL 13, 2008 now and I am curious after coming across the family stone at Shady Grove Cemetery... all died on March 16, 1940 except Willard Allen, who died September 27, 1944 and was buried at sea.... (WWII? Navy?) Does anyone have information now, on this tragedy? Most interesting and so sad! I have been searching... and do not come up with any more info as yet. I also have the Van Buren County Cemetery book....

Thank you
