2024 08 11 - MN Day trip

Today my first stop was the Linwood Cemetery. This is the first time I've been here since the death date has been etched in for Mom.

These local cemeteries I have been to so many times that I didn't think of taking another picture of the cemetery sign.

I also took a picture of my 2nd cousins stone that has been put in since the last time I was here. I wanted to get to a couple of more cemeteries today so I didn't look for any others that are on my list.

This is what my pictures look like when I upload them to my Ancestry family trees.

My second stop today was the Isanti Union cemetery where our son is buried. I did not take another picture of his grave but saw this one as I walked past. They were the last couple I visited to ask family history questions of. We were not in town to go to either funeral.

I also took pictures of other graves that I later realized I already had.

The 3rd cemetery of the day was the church cemetery near Weber MN. I'm guessing that we are related to over half the people buried here.

I had recently added a number of people to my family tree that are buried here and thought I would remember their names if I walked the cemetery, but I didn't. I did find a few of the ones that are still on my list, but not all so I will be back. Maybe with an updated list next time.

I hadn't planned on stopping here but a street was closed on North Branch that I wanted to take. I only had two families to take pictures of at this cemetery and I was able to walk over to the flat ones. Then from where their graves were I saw the other marker I was looking for.

We aren't related to everyone here but there are a lot of names of those that we know.
