Graceland Cemetery - Chicago, IL

The website has a genealogy area where you can send them an email. I sent an email asking about a burial spot because I was going to drive there in the future to take a picture for someone on Ancestry.com. They never replied to the email.

The first time I drove there was a Sunday and the office was closed, so I was not able to find what I needed. But the cemetery is very old, so I stayed and took some photo's.

Second trip down, office was open. The lady in the office was extremely helpful. Turned out the grave I was looking for had been moved to Wisconsin in the late 80's. I did tell her that I had email about this and no one replied. She said that they only do that about 2 days a week and the ladies are normally on top of it. She took my info and said she would look into it. I have not heard from her.

Sherry,

My last visit here was about two weeks ago. They have not contacted me. But I do not remember if I gave my telephone #. I did give me email though.

Feel free to post info to the website.
