Would someone be so kind as to lookup the death date for Mary Anna MILLHOUSE at the above cemetery please?

Mary Anna KRING married Hiram MILLHOUSE in Somerset Co., PA and they moved to Murphysboro, Jackson, IL where she died sometime between 1856 (the birth of her last daughter, Sarah) and 24 Aug 1860 the remarriage of her husband, Hiram MILLHOUSE to Martha Sutherland.

Thank you

Perhaps you have already found your "Millhouse" information, but if not I found the following, some of which may not apply to your family:

In Cemeteries of Jackson County, Illinois, Vol. IV Murphysboro Cemeteries, Jackson County Historical Society, 1982 are the following "Millhouse" entries:

p. 27 (City Cemetery)
"MILLHOUSE, C. A., d. Nov 7, 1894, age 58y, 1m, 27d Confederate veteran"
"MILLHOUSE, Willie E., d. Mar. 16, 1886, age 19y, 7m, 5d, Son of C. A. & M.
Millhouse."

p. 33 (City Cemetery)
"MILLHOUSE, Hiram Martin, drowned Mar. 18, 1880, age 10y, 10d, son of John A. Millhouse"

p. 101 (Tower Grove Cemetery)
"MILLHOUSE, Peter, Mar. 5, 1828-May 20, 1897 Father"
"MILLHOUSE, Caroline, His Wife, Oct. 6, 1835 -Feb. 6, 1904 Mother"

p. 117 (Tower Grove Cemetery)
"MILLHOUSE, Martha E., Wife of Hiram Millhouse, June 14, 1847 - Nov. 21, 1910"
"MILLHOUSE, James Lee, Apr. 19, 1850 - Sep. 19, 1930. Born in England."

p. 201
"MILLHOUSE, Norman Luther, Son of Rev. & Mrs. Millhouse, Sep. 28, 1922"

There are no Millhouse surnames in Vol I, Makanda TS; Vol II Carbondale TS; Vol III, DeSoto and Elk TS; Vol V, Murphysboro TS Cemetery books published by the JCHS.

JCHS does have an extensive file of obituaries and family files. Their latest e-mail address is jchs@verizon.net.

I have no connection to the Millhouse family. Just saw your post while looking for messages that might be related to my family search.
