Grave of Allen M. Day in Olive Furnace
Hi Terry,I have a "Graves Registration" from the Ohio Historical Society which states that our Allen M. Day is buried in Olive Furnace Cemetery in Washington Twp., Lawrence Co..His wife Emily McFann Day is probably buried there with him so they state.I have not been able to find their graves in Olive Furnace or any other cemetery in that area.The "Day Cemetery" was flooded out in 1937 and only a few graves were left.Could it be that maybe the stones are missing even though Allen died in 1903 and Emily died in 1891?Or maybe they were placed later in the Day Cemetery and vanished.
If you can help me with their graves, I sure would be happy.Allen was a Civil War Veteran.Thanks for all your work in the genealogy area.Let me know if you need anything I have.I sent Brian McFann all that I had before.Best always,Johanne
