I'm going to Iowa the end of April to visit James AMBREY, my great-grandfather's grave at Southlawn Cemetery in Seymour, Iowa. I have a copy of "Wayne County, Iowa CEMETERIES 1846-1978" as well as the "Supplement to Wayne Co., Iowa Cemeteries" and the "Supplement to the Supplement" all of which were published by the Wayne County Genealogical Society. I would be more than happy to look-up a name for anyone who has an ancestor buried in Wayne Co. Iowa, USA. Some of the surnames I know came from the forest that are listed: Hughes, Voyce, Thomas, Matthews and probably many more.

Hello ellieperry
this is a long shot, but my ancestors went to Iowa in the 1890s and some, including my great grandmother and grandfather returned in about 1904. They lived at Eagle Grove, Wright County. I have found them on the census.
Names: Urenah or Rena Garland
Samuel and Gertrude garland
We believe there are other family members there
Harry Knight and Charles Knight, if you should have any opportunity to look anything up, I know its not your primary aim, I would be grateful
regards, have a great time

Hi Baroness,
I looked in all three of my books, no luck. I'm leaving Friday for Iowa, my youngest son is graduating from Grand View University in Des Moines, IA. Will be visiting the cemetery in Seymour on Sunday. Sorry I couldn't be help. Were the Knights miners?
