Gravestone Inscriptions (for my family) by Darlene K. Buell 3/5/1998 http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Pointe/3237/DOCUMNTS.HTM Please note: Many names of cemeteries may not be current. I have not been able to determine the current names of cemeteries. If you know what these cemeteries current names are, please e-mail me at darlene.buell@frucon.com. Thanks! You may want to refer to my indented descendant tree in order to see my relationships to these people. Two of the BUELL Civil War boys are not buried in Michigan, since they died while in service: Horace is buried in Glaskow, KY, and John died at the Battle of Gettysburg. The following inscriptions were copied by Merle Perry, Jr. in 1962. Any notes in ( ) brackets were added by Mr. Perry. Any notes in [ ] brackets are by me.
