According to transcriptions in "The Virginia Halsteads" it states Kedar was buried at Magnolia Cemetery. He was married twice, 1st to Sarah Emma Rogers on or about 1857. They had two known children Emma Virginia and Thomas Alonzo Halstead. His 2nd marriage was on 12 Jun 1881 to Deborah Ann Cooper, the one known child from the marriage was Amanda Gertrude Halstead.
Magnolia Cemetery is a different Cemetery from the Magnolia Section in the Riverside Cemetery, Riverside did not open until 1911 according to gentlemen I spoke with on 11-19-12. This confirms Kedar's burial at Magnolia Cemetery.
