All of Union County's cemetery records are listed on the USGenweb site for Union
County. Lydia is NOT listed. If she is buried at Salem, her tombstone is long gone.
It is possible that she was buried at the Silver Creek Friends cemetery. Originaly we had
two MM houses; Salem and Silver Creek.
They merged.
I have been to both cemeteries.
This is a link to view all that is left of Silver Creek.

County/N-Z/silver_creek_friends.htm
9 stones that are fairly readable and a bunch of broken nubs of stones.
Salem is in very good shape and I have been there many times checking the surveys. Her
stone is not there! It is not listed in ANY of our cemetery surveys. So either 1) she
never had a marker 2)The marker is illegable 3)The marker is gone
