"I am responding to your request for a photo of the gravestone of Francis Hamilton. I am the president of the South Onondaga Cemetery Association. I found out where his plot was but so far have not found a stone. I did locate the stone for his wife Olive. There is a large tree next to where I assume his stone was and suspect it was heaved over by the roots of the tree. I will look around further after the snow melts. I do know there are a few displaced stones piled up near a work shed. Let me know if you would like any other information."
