Hi Judy, I have books-- but if it is a Mayo-- there is a Mayo cemetery not
far from where I live. I do not have the Cass/Patoka Twp book but will
check the other. I have a friend that I think has the others-- so will
forward this to her. Carol, can you look in Cass/Patoka Twp cem books
for a Prudence Mayo Walker-- b. abt 1836, md Dessick Walker in 1853, she
may have died about 1869 maybe in Dubois CO. Judy, I will look and also
see what Carol can find.
Have a good day. Helen

Helen,Do you perhaps have anything on where my ggg grandmother is
buried.?
I am sure that I have told you about her before.? But did not know that
you had a book of Dubois County Cemeteries,and it is next to impossible to
learn about them in Dubois Co.? Prudence (Prudy,Pudiah,Puddie,Brute) Mayo
b.?abt 1836. m.Dessick Walker in 1853.She may hav e died in childbirth
about 1869as that is when her last child was born and he married his
second wife in 1869 in Dubois County.? So I have an idea that Prudence
died in Dubois County.? Have found about all of his wife's? graves,except
Prudence's.? He was buried next to his last Wife,Matilda in Pike
County,and she got his pension from the Civil War. HE was 72 when he
married her and 75 when he died. So it kind of burns me up that they did
not put him by the wife who had his children!? So if you could look in
your book and see if there is a Prudence Walker or Prudence Mayo Walker in
it,I would sure appriciate it.? From what I hear he was!
a nice guy,but he? sure didn't let any grass grow under his feet! As I
said I may? have told you this before,but just wondered if you would try
to look it up.? I am n ot sure that these dates are right,as? my mother
and aunt both said that they remembered seeing? "grandpa Walker" that he
was with a grandma Mary and that he had been married 6 or 7 times,and the
last one was? to a lady who was related to his daughter (my g grandma's)
Elzina's inlaws.? Mom was b.1907 and her sister 1914.? So I am just not
sure that the death date is right.? Grandpa would have died the year mom
was born,and aunt Pat was not even born yet!? I just wonder is the dates
are right on his stone.? But my main thing is to find where Prudence is
buried right now.? Will deal with the rest later!
Judy
Your GW Goodman is buried in the Old Bethleham Cemetery just on the west
edge of Schnellville. He is not in the church cemetery. According
to the cemetery book I have, on his tombstone is the following:
G. W. Goodman (government stone) CO I 49th IN Infantry
(on the south side of the cem).
There are only 5 stones at this small cemetery, there were others, but no
stone.
