Several years ago I wrote to your society and asked help on finding a cemetery. At that time you told me it was on the Lafarge property. I'm wondering if anyone was been able to gain access? I now know there are several of my relatives buried in this cemetery. I just accessed more death records from St. Louis and the following are buried somewhere in Massac Co.

Milton Jones and wife Emily Jones
Sarah Jones Kirk and husband Thomas Kirk
Otis E. Schlosser and wife Virginia or Virgie Jones Schlosser. It is possible that Richard Jones and wife Ona Clayton and William Jones and wife may also be buried there.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Steve,
What is your connection to Iona Clayton? I don't have much information on her but I do have a contact (daughter of Ruth Malina Clayton, Iona's sister) I may be able to help.

Iona Clayton b. May 13, 1875 d. Oct 13, 1961 Joppa IL. Married Richard T. Jones June 6, 1894. b. 1860 d. 1952.
