Hello,
I
live in St. Louis, Missouri and
saw on the local news tonight
that there is a BRIDGETON
MEMORIAL PARK - 1843 - 1963 (
North St. Louis) that is looking
for persons with family buried
there. The airport is being
expanded and they are going to
move the CEMETERY.
Is
there a way to get this message
to as many listers as possible in
a short amount of
time?
Can
you help!

I
was hoping that I'd get more
suggestions to the pictures if I
threatened to toss them. If I
hadn't taken them they would have
been thrown out. Most of the
pictures are people from Hungry
and there is no living family
here so they aren't relatives of
mine. My mother was an only child
and my grandmother's family here
is dead, no cousins, but those
cousins somewhere in Hungry. I
would rather they found their
true families first before going
to a Historical society. Then I'd
need to figure out what county to
send them to that they may have
had that family settling there. I
do have several photos w/no
names. Someone suggested a site
but when I went there it was for
selling and buying. It's been
pretty much a dead end for
them.
