I received this this AM from another list. Hope through posting to more
lists, the family can be found.

This was in Tues, 8 May, Springfield MO News Leader, p. 5B:
Discovery of cemetery halts roadwork--Associated Press-Kansas
City--Construction of a new highway in south Kansas City has been halted
by the discovery of a small cemetery dating back to the Civil War
era.State officials are anxious to find any descendants of the HOLLOWAY
family who are bured in the cemetery. If the heirs can't be found, the
State will have to get court permission to move the nine graves in the
plot, in order to finish a new Missouri 150. Construction workers
recently unearthed a marble headstone, dating from 1858, while moving a
large section of water pipe. Archaeologists later found another
headstone and evidence of seven other graves. The site has not been
disturbed further.

Please pass this on to other lists.
