April 17 2024. My mother Mary and her companion of Joseph Steele were together for over 20 years. They were never married, but had purchased adjoining burial plots and a shared headstone. As she was not into genealogy or find a grave. So I made a memorial for her to prevent a stranger from adding miss information. Once the headstone is update. A new photo will be added.
**************************************************As of February 24, 2017 - I have started to add the burials from the Sexton's Coupon which were original attached to the Burial Permits to Milton Cemetery and sending edits when needed. These coupons were detached from the Burial Permit and retained by the Sexton at the time of burial.************************************************** List of headstones that were photographed at Milton Cemetery in Alton, Madison, Illinois. Original list was compiled in 2001 by Marjorie Miller and son Bruce of Alton IL. An early inventory was done in 1960 by Emil Bertels and combined with the Miller's list.
