Unknown Amazonia, MO cemetery
"In searching for the old Caples Cemetery in Amazonia, we missed one of our turns and ended up at this cemetery just east of the town and surrounded by farms. One small section of the cemetery is enclosed by a wrought iron fence; the rest of the headstones spreading north and east from that enclosure. Though this cemetery has seen burials into the 1980's, it is obviously abandoned and neglected. Many of the stones have fallen, and the entire area is over run with brambles." Sandy Nehrling, snehrling@mediaone.net, 2000
McGlothlin Cemetery is in Benton twp. (Sec 24 - Twp 60 - Rng 34) on the farm of Bill JORDAN, Rt. 3, Savannah, less than 1 mile from Nodaway twp to the west, and Empire twp to the south in Andrew Co.

Above is a view, taken in 1978, of part of the oldest section of the
city cemetery in Savannah. It shows the tombstones, left to right
foreground, of Conrad, William, Mary, Virginia, and Henry Eisiminger.
To get an idea of change in tombstones, compare this 1999 view of the same 5 tombstones of the Conrad Eisiminger family. Virginia's and Henry's stones are
fallen and partially buried in the ground now.
