i put isaac's name in the national index census. i came up with 2 of them that could
be him. do you know what state isaac was born in? it says the one in PA was born in 1828.
on the cemetery records, it says 1823. depending on how legible the writing is on the
stone.....also, regarding cold springs cemetery. the problem there seems to be the
caretaker. a few years ago, a cleanup went on in that cemetery. the trustee of that
township is one of the best when it comes to the restoration of the cemeteries in that
township. caretakers think that as long as they get the mowing done, that is all they have
to do. i am now involved with a 70 year old man restoring one of the oldest cemeteries
here in my town. i usually spend at least 2 days a week at 9 hours a day. it's a big
job! i've been at it for about 3 months now and probably have 9 more months to go.
