Manus Ferry (1831-1883) burial place

 According to the death record from the Diocese of Steubenville in Steubenville, Ohio Manus Ferry died on 12 July 1883. 

He was buried at Saint Mary's Catholic Cemetery in Pine Grove, Lawrence County, Ohio.

On 7 October 1905 his wife Margaret McFadden Ferry (1845-1905) died in Newark, Licking County, Ohio. She is buried in Cedar Hill Cemetery in Newark, Ohio in an unmarked grave.

According to her file at the Cedar Hill office on the 22 November 1907 the body of Manus was relocated and buried next to Margaret. His headstone is still, as far as I know at St. Mary's Cemetery.

Wonder why the headstone was not relocated. Perhaps too expensive?

I was researching old Newspapers for the name Schildhauer in Ohio and came across this article.

        Mr. Charles Hempstead, the West Main Street Photographer

        on Monday took several fine group pictures of General Foreman

        of the Baltimore & Ohio shops H.L. Needam, and the foreman of 

        various departments under him.

It also goes on to mention H.L. Schildhauer and his machine shop. So far, I have been unable to locate any information on Hempstead and his photography business. Hopefully some of his photographs are out there and I'm able to track them down.
