Lots of history in that cemetery.

Newspaper accounts of the time state that John Selman’s grave site was in Concordia Catholic section. Most likely the American Catholic section. His current marker is located pretty much in the center of the Protestant Section. Specifically, Tier 7, Lot 23, Grave 11. Concordia’s burial records indicate that this gravesite belongs to a Virginia Steinborn who was killed in an automobile accident in 1933. To be best of my knowledge burial records for Catholic burials before 1911 have not been found.

The white crosses that represent the “children’s burial nursery” were placed there in sometime in the past 20 years without regard to any specific burial. Sometimes they are referenced as Spanish Flu victims of 1919 (or there about). The problem being is up until the early 1960s it was a roadway separating Tiers 1 and 2..

It is a really neat cemetery with a lot of history.

me too, I can always learn about a place by visiting the markets and the cemeteries.
