SHERMANVILLE

[Mona Lisa]

you are missed.

Did Sherm leave TreasureNet?

Very sad but true...everytime I see someone who writes like him, I send them a PM....so far only sadness comes back.

He'll be back.......He's just on a walkabout. Absence only makes our hearts grow fonder. 8)

Too true.

People have often expressed a great fondness for my absence.

The cemetery Sherm was talking about was where Blodgett Road now runs. Actually Blodgett road years ago had the lanes built around part of the cemetery before the graves were relocated. There are bits and pieces of information, but it just puts you in about a 1 mile area of where it stood.

I know this is old but the IL USGS has lidar images of the area in question. Maybe take a look at those for hidden structures under the landscape.
