Jeremiah Mitchell - UNMARKED WAR VETERANS GRAVE
I am looking for anyone who is a descendant of Jeremiah Mitchell was born on November 13, 1838 at North Yarmouth, Maine; the son of Ammi R. & Larisa Mitchell. He later enlisted in the U.S, Navy around 1863. He migrated to Australia where he died at Sandridge, Victoria, today’s Port Melbourne, on December 6, 1869. Jeremiah Mitchell was buried in the Melbourne General Cemetery, Wesleyan Section without a headstone. With the assistance of a descendant, direct or indirect, he can acquire a free headstone from the American Government. Any help will be appreciated. Contact James Gray at [email protected]
