I have been trying to locate the graves of Raphael/Ralph Ambrose (1839 - bet. 1920 and 1930) and his son Joseph T. Ambrose (1878 - 1928) in the Pleasureville Cemetery. According to the Ambrose Genealogy site run by Pat Asher, Ralph is buried there. I have not seen his death certificate and have not seen his tombstone, despite several trips to the cemetery. According to Joseph's death certificate, he was also buried there, but have not been able to locate his grave either. Another son of Ralph, William IS buried there and his grave is marked. This is a fairly large cemetery. The caretaker apparently does not keep cemetery records, so I cannot locate the specific plot that Ralph or Joseph may be buried in. There does not appear to be an area where there are unmarked graves; however, there is a small cemetery right next to the Pleasureville Cemetery that is separated by a fence where only a few sporadic graves are marked. I am not sure if this cemetery is part of the Pleasureville Cemetery or not. If anyone has any information on the Ambroses buried here, where I can find cemetery records, or whether it is possible that there are indeed unmarked graves there, it would be greatly appreciated.
