Not to change the thread. Do you live in the area?
I have family buried in the area. Was there last summer and wanted to get a picture of the gravesite. I thought my contact would be there to direct me but he had turned his records over to the city. They were in the process of organizing the records. I had ER in my notes and had forgotten it stood for Elk Rest. Anyway did not find the graves on that trip. I wondered if you were available to take additional pictures.

Orke712,

Yes I actually live in Victor. I will be more than happy to take the pictures for you. If the weather holds I should be able to visit the Cemetery this weekend.

The city just recently obtained ownership of the cemetery, and I know they are still working on some records issue and well some ownership issues for some family plots.

Ralph

Thank you
You can reach me directly { orke712@hotmail.com }for any costs that might be associated with. I am possibly planning another visit this summer. My great grandmother Annie J O'Rourke is supposedly also buried there. Taken up from Durango the family just got busy moved elswhere and did not get her a marker. I am thinking of trying to get at least some form of marker and would like to know what the current ones look like.

Thanks again
Teri

Teri,

I was unable to locate the markers below, however I will be going back out there again this weekend and will see if I can find them. I sent you 2 emails with images attached for the markers I did locate.
