A FindAGrave volunteer photographed the tombstones of my paternal great granduncle and aunt, Henry and Edith Mabel (LeMASTER) MEINHOLTZ. Edith was the daughter of Luman Walker and Mary Keziah (CHEW) LeMASTERS, and the younger sister of my Luman Cooper LeMASTERS.
I've previously posted their obituaries, and it is nice to see the tombstone photos. I'm so thankful for all the volunteers who make FindAGrave a success.
Edith and Henry were buried in the Evergreen Cemetery in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Memorial pages for Henry C. Meinholtz and Edith Meinholtz.
