BLOOMING GROVE CEMETERY

NOTE this is a color coded web page! Many times I am asked where I found the information on a cemetery page, since I use several resources per page I have started color coding them for information references.

 

Kyle Shoultz has sent the following information that is in this color blue. Kyle has additional information on his Find a Grave web page where he has pictures of people, headstones and some obituaries.

 

My additions are in this color.

I have added information to this cemetery that is not based on just headstone inscriptions but other records I have found as well as the Books Legacy of Kin by Harold G. Felty and the Illinois state data base as a cross reference.

  

Death Certificate numbers were found in the Illinois Statewide Database http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/GenealogyMWeb/idphdeathsrch.html

 

Special Note: I collect obituaries and they are important to me. If you are looking for an obituary of a relative the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library offers a newspaper lookup service that will send you copies of the original obituaries listed below for a small fee ( 2 obits for a $1.00 for Illinois residents $10.00 for out of state) check out their information at the following link http://www.state.il.us/hpa/lib/ishlgen.htm

 

 

Although we have tried to be as accurate as possible in our research, mistakes happen, if you know of any corrections or additions to this family please contact me, thanks Laurie lselpien@msn.com
