Note: This man's given name is spelled "Guemesindo" on the Cedar Heights cemetery transcription referenced below. Spelling of that name does vary from one individual to another, but Gumesindo (with only one "e") seems to be the most common. Moreover, his given name is spelled "Gumesindo" in U.S. Veterans Affairs records, so it appears there was an error in transcribing the marker.
