Thanks for sonipptg by and the kind words Merrill. It took me a while but I did find the “Official” records for the Salem Lutheran Cemetery. To say the best, it was a mess. I did finally sort it all out and entered all the names that were in the records into my data base which I am sure you have seen on this site. I just checked and there is no Daniel Price. That doesn’t mean that he isn’t buried there, but there are no records of it. I can’t give you the name of the person with the records because I’m sure you won’t get a response from him. He isn’t a computer person and not even the person that is supposed to have the records. It is a mess to say the least.If I remember correctly, and I’m not sure I do, in the oldest part of the cemetery they aren’t even sure where the graves are so they don’t bury anyone there. I’m not sure about that though. Originally there was a church at the front of the area and but it is long gone.Yes, a number of the stones are just piled up. They were just thrown every which way between two trees. My wife and I took them all out of the pile, cleaned them, took photos and then piled them back “neatly” rather than in a heap.I’m sorry I can’t be of more help.Thanks again for sonipptg by.Bob Jones
