I would be greatly indebted to anyone willing to take some pics of the stones of some of my relatives in and around Marion, IL, including Rosewood Cem. and Crab Orchard for sure. Some surnames would be Boles, Chamness, and Cooksey. I can provide more details when you contact me. I have had a request at RAOGK for quite some time as well as Find-a-Grave but no takers as of yet. If you would be willing to take these for me, I would greatly appreciate it!

Correction: That should be Rose Hill Cemetery instead of Rosewood. Sorry!!!

I have taken quite a few pix at those cemetaries when I visited there in 2002.
If you will send me your e-mail address, I will send you a link so that you can view them.
I also have a few pix of Chamness folks.
My e-mail adress is:

Did you get all the pics you wanted or need? Do I have you on my myfamily site where all the grave marker photographs are located? Log in to the myfamily site or write me at gjkdinosaur@aol.com.

Where can I find a listing for the area cemeteries? and also obituaries?

Im looking for Oliver Chancy 1847-1924
and Susan K Davis Chancy 1847 - 1928. Both lived and died in Creal Springs.

This is where I got my information:

Mary,

Did I ever give you my e-mail address? Forgive me if we've already corresponded -- it's my first cup of coffee! Looking forward to hearing from you!
