Hi ! Adriana,
Thank you for your kind thoughts. Read between your lines for answers;
Have you look up online for Otoe County cemeteries? My
ancestors' names
are not on the list online even though it shows proof that they were buried in
Wyuka. Let me know if you did.
I have not looked in other cemeteries since most all the family was buried at
Wyuka in Nebraska City.
It means that you need to contact with Otoe County archives, socities, and
libraries or people know how to find them successfully there.
I did write to the Gen. Society at Otoe, but no success.
Try not to narrow one, but look different direction to find them. Try to
contact
county which might have cemetery records. Otoe County looks like
difficult
one for cemetery records. Obituaries are very helpful regarding on name of
list for cemetery site also.
Have not found an Obit. since I am not exactly sure when John Gilson died,
Can you provide the name and dates? I would get better view with idea for
you.
John Gilson b. 1814 Columbiana County Ohio.
Was in Greene Co. Indiana in 1860.
Lost in 1870.
Was in Adair Co. Missouri in 1880
Supposed to have moved to Otoe Co. Nebraska City, NE just after 1880.
Wife was a widow in 1885 Otoe Co. State census.
