My great-grandmother was interred in Belvue Cemetery in 1891 then disinterred and taken to Philadelphia Memorial Park in 1954. I notified the cemetery that I would like to take photos of her "new" burial site weeks before I drove there on Memorial Day, May 27, 2011. I was told her burial site would be located and the headstone dug up enough to be seen by the time of my arrival. It was not to be. No one was available that day and when I returned to Indiana I was called three weeks later and told it was now available for photographing! It probably is covered over again by now, but if some kind soul is out there some fine day, I still would appreciate a photograph. I'll send the information if I get a positive reply. The stories of how these bodies were treated is disturbing. Thank you for any help now or in the future.
