SECTION 30
again....
I had absolutely no
luck finding Leslie Akison's stone after walking the section twice.
Perhaps there is no stone. Perhaps I needed reference points. Perhaps
there is a stone but it's so faded that it's hard to read. Since his
stone is giving me fits to find, I'm moving on. Someone else will
have to confirm whether there is a stone or not.
Section P again....
Section
P was hard to swallow. I had hoped to find my 3rd
Great-Grandfather Charles GORDON in this section. He's buried on his
sons-in-law's plot. Their names should be easy to find. I had
orientation markers to help me find the plot. When I got there, the
tears returned. No stones, for any of the family members. Perhaps I
should have photographed the empty plot, which I absolutely knew was
theirs, but I just needed to wipe the tears and move on.
Section L again....
Although section L
held the father of my great-grandfather's second wife, finding
another location without a headstone was wearing out my emotions. I
had to move on to something were I would find success

SECTION 112
Ahhh!!!
Section 112. Although I'm really branching far into the Gerlacher
family even though I'm not directly related to them, after going to
Clara Gerlacher Peak's
plot it was cool to visit her uncle Frederick GERLACHER's
(1896-1969). For one thing, I FOUND a stone. For another, it was
large and easy to spot from the road. And, it was in the shade.
That's the aahhh, that started this notation.

I didn't take too many
photos as it was getting late in the afternoon. The heat was really
getting to me and I had so many more sections to visit. I only took 6
photos in this section. Grand total 281 useable photos.
