Wow! What a great Christmas present! Linda, I've been looking for the
final resting place of Samuel and Nancy Ann Packwood for some time.
Thank you for solving a piece of the puzzle. Samuel and Nancy were my
Grandmother's grandparents and were both originally born in Indiana.
They had their children (Clara, John, William, Samuel, George Walter,
Porter, Valla and Ela) in Iowa. They then moved to Nebraska were Samuel
was a State Senator in 1893 at the age of 64. I thought they remained in
Nebraska in their final years but a volunteer researcher could find no
cemetary or probate records there. Obviously, like most Packwood's they
lived well into old age and still liked to travel! Washington! I haven't
looked into the Packwood records for this area yet! My line descends
from son George Walter, who married in Illinios, then made his way
northwest to the Canadian prairies. His daughter, my grandmother, still
lives in northern British Columbia. 
Thanks and Merry Christmas Everyone!

I forgot to mention previously that Tony Klingensmith has posted an
account of Samuel Day's experience with the 22nd Iowa at

www.iowa-counties.com/civilwar2/SamuelDay/chap1.htm

 In the beginning of this account, there is good information on Samuel's
wife, Isabel Packwood, some siblings, and her father, William (m. Jane
Shoemaker)and their life in Iowa. Again, Merry Christmas everyone. Petra

Burnett Cousins--
  Here's wishing you all the Merriest of Christmases and a joyous 2000!
I've learned so much about my family history thanks to you folks, and I've
been so blessed to be able to get to know you all.  I'm starting to get used
to the pace of my job, so hopefully I will be able to do an overhaul/update
of the website after the first of the year.  Please let me know if you have
suggestions on things to add for the benefit of our group.
