Memorial Day

Are you headed to the cemetery this weekend?

If so, this list might be of interest to you.

A few months ago I thought it would be interesting to find out where our ancestors are buried. I had some information, but I started seeking out more. Many of our ancestors are buried in Salt Lake City Cemetery, but as that is an enormous cemetery, I found out the grave “addresses” as well.

I aspire to taking my children up there this summer to find and take pictures of all of the grave markers…but if any of you get there first…send me the pictures!

Here I have listed all of the names of our grandparents in each generation, some of which I have yet to find out exactly where they are buried. If you know…PLEASE let me know, so I don’t have to try and research it all.

I have changed the font to Green for Salt Lake City Cemetery Information.

I have much more information about all these people, but here I have only included Burial Information that I have. I have also linked some of the names to other posts I have made about them. So if you click on a name that is underlined, it will take you to more information about that person.

Sir Ralph de Scoville

Today I am thankful for Marene Ebert who a few years ago sent us a copy of her family history file. Today I was investigating how far back it goes...and WOW!!! My 25th great grandfather's(yes, say great 25 times) name was Sir Ralph de Scoville who lived in England in 1194 AD.

That means he lived in the time of King Richard, Prince John, and Robin Hood.

The two pictures are of the Scoville Family Coat of Arms.

The following was taken from the book "A Survey of the Scovills in England and America; 700 Years of History & Genealogy" by Homer Worthington Brainard.

"...court record...designates Ralph de Scoville as a knight,--not a knight by the mere virtue of possessing land... or solely as a knight of the shire (member of parliament), but a true knight of England in both the civil and military meanings, or, in words more specific, a man owning a knight's fee of land or who had received the honor of knighthood from the king, by being touched upon the shoulder with a sword held in the hand of the the king; hence we have judged, and may continue to judge, of the quality of the men of the Scoville family in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries by this fact of knighthood. Ralph de Scoville may have been even a crusader-knight in the third crusade of 1189-1192 under Richard I."

"Ralph de Scoville was one of those manorial lords who joined with the great barons of England in forcing their King John to sign the Magna Charta, the great declaration of independence by Englishmen."

Yes, we have pretty cool ancestors!!!

If you are wondering where the connection comes:
Beth McCullough--Raymond McCullough--Ruth Susan Independence Keysor--Guy Messiah Keysor--Elizabeth Scoville--Ebenezer Scoville--Stephen Scoville--John Scoville--John Scoville--Arthur Scoville (He came to America before 1662 and settled in Connecticut, so he is our pilgram)--Richard Scoville--Louis Scoville--Robert Scoville--Andrew Scoville--Thomas Scoville--William Scoville--Robert Scoville--Henry Scoville--Thomas Scoville--John de Scoville--Phillip de Scoville--Robert de Scoville--John de Scoville--John de Scoville--William de Scoville--Sir Ralph de Scoville
