I haven't looked for them, but I have a burial place for their son Isaias J. Yoder in
Hillcrest Memorial Cemetery in Owosso Michigan.My relationship calculator on PAF says that
Isaias and I are 2nd cousins 5 times removed. Actually, I am related to him through 3
different sets of ancestors.
Anna and I are 4th cousins three times removed and related through Christian Zug and Anna
Kannabel.
Rebecca Hershberger Yoder died in April 1877 in Middlebury Lagrange county. When I pulled
up the Google Map of the township, Greenwood Cemetery is right there at the center of the
township.
I'm not familiar with the area, but I would recommend that you search in both Elkhart
and Lagrange counties. On the INGenWeb.org\elkhart website, there is a map from 1895 and
it appears that the county lines may have changed between that date and now. I looks to me
as though they lived along the border between the two counties. One of their sons died in
Goshen (John A. on 3 Dec 1913).
