Regarding John Ireland - I was looking through a handwritten journal of
burials at Mt. Zion, which came from their old records. Plot #234 is listed
as being owned by Ireland & Carter (no first names), and just a few lines
under that, plot #237 is owned by T.W. Carter, with someone being buried
in that one in 1944. No other mention of Ireland.
Also, there were photos of each marker, and I didn't see any Ireland, though
many were not readable.

Tax records in Montezuma show a John H. Ireland in 1862 as a retail dealer
in horse carriages. Somewhere I got that he was born in 1847 and died in
1867 and is buried in Mt.Zion Cemetery. Anybody know anything about his man?
He supposedly had one child, a son, Charles, in 1865 in RC. He was married
to Magaret Melissa Gray.
