Hi again Greg.Plot ownership is tracked by the cemetery.Go to Yahoo Yellow Pages and click Change Location.Enter "South Olive, OH in the block and click.On the next page, enter "cemeteries" in the window and click "Search".You'll get a list of 51 cemeteries in order by distance from South Olive.Each cemetery has Name, address, phone number and distance from South Olive listed.The office should be able to tell you who owned what plot.If your ancesters died before 1934, you can go to www.ohiohistory.com, the site of the Ohio Historical Society.On the left side click Archives then go to the Death Certificates link.The society was the repository for the certs until 1934.The link takes you to a page where you can enter some info on your ancestor and get a page that gives you enough info that you can order the cert from the society.It is relatively cheap.The cert gives the cemetery name and location.You can then call the telephone info number to get the cemetery office number or get it off the on line Yellow Pages from above path.The cert also has other info, cause of death, doctor, maybe parents names, etc that might help you in other ways.Contact me by email if you want to discuss this im more depth quicker than forum postings.Phil
