WOW, yes that is my grandfather, Daniel Sullivan. I have a burial date of August 7, 1925
but not an actual death date.
I don't know when my grandmother died just sometime between 1895 and 1900 according to
the 1900 census. Like I memtioned before my Father was raised in an orphanage and he
always thought his Father was dead and that is why he never came back for him. I just
recently found out Daniels name and was able to find him still alive until 1925. I do not
know why he did not go back for my Father, but "assume' it was because he had no
money and no way to take care of a child.
It will be wonderful if you are able to get a picture of his marker. I will gladly pay for
any film and developing expenses. I know you said you enjoy doing old graveyards, but it
must still get expensive.
Thank you so much
Cecelia
