Buried in a group of pauper's graves where my greatuncle is also buried, is one Adam Christ. On his death certificate, his birth and age info is a bit unclear, but he was born in Germany, the son of John Christ, also born Germany. He died in Cheney, Washington from a fall down stairs resulting in a fractured skull.
I am not sure why he lies in an unmarked pauper grave, as he apparently was married (to one Margaret); some of the information was supplied by a daughter, Miss Lucille Christ of Seattle, and he was, apparently, still a working farmer as of the day of his death. It was, however, the height of the Depression.
In any case, it is my intention to eventually ercet simple markers on the graves of all these hardworking, but "forgotten" men who lie in the same ground as my greatuncle. This is not a plea for help, but an attempt to re-connect Adam Christ with his family.
If Adam is part of your family, and especially if you can fill in the missing birthdates, I would be pleased to hear from you.
