I am looking for any info on either the town or the cemetery of Sand Ridge in Grundy County. To make a long story short, even though there is a Sand Ridge in southern Illinois a Google search of "Sand Ridge in Grundy County Illinois" shows that Sand Ridge is located between Morris and Minooka.
My great grandmoter's uncle, Joseph Kallis, died in Wilmington on December 28, 1903 and is buried at Sand Ridge Cemetery. I think his father, Frank Kallis, who died on December 25, 1880 is also buried there. The Kallis family lived in Grundy and Will Counties between 1850s and 1880s. I have searched for possible burials in Braidwood and Wilmington, to no avail. Frank also had a mother-in-law that I think died and buried in Illinois. Her name was Lena or Ellen or Helena Selinger or Seliger.
