I went to Princeton last week for several days. The Princeton Cem records were destroyed by fire decades ago and they have no record of Henry C. Baskerville. After hours of wandering, I found his grave. Very interesting, too, because he is buried next to several of the Seminary professors I had 40 years ago. He must have had connections to the Sem. It is a large stone and almost matches thes stone two graves away, for another minister. Mrs. Baskerville is not buried with her husband. Of course, since he died at 62 she may have died on the West coast and was buried there...who knows. Sometime I can send you a diagram of H.C.'s grave location if it is of interest to the family.
My new passport should arrive within two weeks. I will begin the visa process to go to Iran and that will take several months, I am sure. I don't want to be in Teheran in the summer. Been there/done that. Perhaps after Labor Day if my friends find that convenient. They will be back in the state during the summer, I suspect, so I'll see when they want me in Teheran and can take me to Tabriz. I am so eager to see his grave and photographit and visit the town hall where there is a bronze bust. Did you get all this stuff on the internet? Most interesting. Keep in touch.
