Yesterday I visited Charleston Cemetery, in Volina Twp, Cass County, Michigan. I took digital photos of all the Welchers there. I'm happy to share photos via email, also...can you help me connect the clans??
Two separate plots within this small cemetery:
Catherine Welcher, Dec 28, 1818-Nov 14, 1895 (this is Catherine Beresford Welcher, wife of Abram).
Margaret, badly worn pillar-type stone. Looks like it says "wife of" but I can't guarantee it. Nothing else is legible. Who is this???
Next to it is an unmarked plot. I imagine this is Abram.
Harriet, wife of Abram Welcher died Mar 7, 1856, aged 40 yrs 6 mos.
Harriet L. died Sept 23, 1859 then looks like 7 yrs __ mos
then something else illegible then also infant son d. Mar 26 (?), 1837(?). Children of A & C Welcher. I expect these are children of Abram and Catherine (which means the infant son's death date must be 1857), but I didn't know of these kids. Am I right?
In the other plot are:
Alfred Welsher d. Dec 29, 1890 age 46 yrs 3 mos 23 ds Where does he fit in?? (spelled with an s)
Henry H. son of J& B Welcher. There is a date on this stone, but the stone has been broken off and "replanted" so the death date is below the surface. I didn't risk knocking over the stone by digging down to read the date. I assume this is son of John and Bridget? Can you tell me the date?
Then a military style stone...Jno Welcher Co A 12th Mich Inf. No date. Assume this is John of John & Bridget? When did he die?
Mrs. John Welcher d. June21, 1880, age 65 years. Assume this is Bridget?
I'm happy to share photos if you'll email me.
Thanks.
Bonnie
