Does anyone know if there is a sexton or person to contact about burials in this cemetery? I am looking for burials that were before death certificates. I know that one of my ancestors a James R Burgess is buried in the ROBEY plot as he had a stone. His parents are "suppose" to be there, but no info that I can find....I live out of state.
One kind soul did get me the photo of James Burgess's grave. and thought there was possibly what was left of a stone behind it.....Catherine Burgess lived with Caroline Robey ( her daughter by her first marriage) until her death as far as we know...Edward would have died early on after they got to Allamakee count in the late 1850's or early 1860's. Catherine and Edward are one set of my great great paternal grandparents.
Find A Grave:
James Burgess
Birth: Jun. 3, 1838
Death: Apr. 9, 1860
Burial:
Rossville Cemetery
Rossville
Allamakee County
Iowa, USA
ANY help would be appreciated....thank you
Sandy
