Al Goin <agoin2(a)yahoo.com> sent me the following report on his group's efforts
to restore the James/Schrok Cemetery in Northern Indiana. Thought you might
find it encouraging.
Thank you for your interest and help. I have talked
with Larry Clark and Tim Cole is interviewing some
ancestors of the deceased for us. I have received a
number of answer to my news article, some with
encouragement and some with answers to our questions.
One of the answers, provided the information that
Jacob Wolf is one of the people buried there. That
bring the total of named graves to twenty.
i received one phone call suggesting we find an
ex-Gary, IN school teacher by the name of Mrs. Fern or
Frances Dorsey. In the early 70's, before the
vandals, she copied the stones in the cemetery.
the search goes on.
Again, thank you for your interest and help.
