Dear Ancestor, Your tombstone stands among the rest, neglected and alone, The name, the date, are chiseled out in weather-beaten stone. It reaches out for all to see, it is too late to mourn, You did not know I would exist, you died and I was born. Yet each of us are part of you, in flesh, in blood, in bone, And in my breast there beats a pulse entirely not my own. ~ Author Unknown

We welcome photos of headstones relating to our families. Alphabetically arranged according to Family name at the time of death. Therefore, a married female will be listed with the husband's surname rather than her maiden name. Where possible, we will include the maiden name, if known. Corrections and additions are solicited and welcomed. Please include source of information. If you've ever wondered what the carvings on a tombstone meant, you may find it here~ Tombstone Symbolism Tombstones "A" Tombstones "B" BITTNER BUCHHOLTZ Tombstones "C" CROWE Tombstones "D"     DAWSON DELBROOK Tombstones "E"   EVERLINE GEIGER GRACIE Tombstones "H" HART HUMBERTSON KAYLOR KOELKER KROLL LAPP LAYMAN LEPLEY LOGSDON Tombstones "M" Tombstones "N" Tombstones "P" PETENBRINK Tombstones "R" ROBINSON ~ ROBISON Tombstones "S" SHEPHERD Tombstones "T" THRASHER VANPELT Tombstones "W" WINEBRENNER RELATED FAMILIES  (ASHENFELTER, FRANKE, KNEPP)
