Someone else knew he was there

Well now. I went to the Postville Cemetery yesterday. Lots of things happened, but this is the coolest:

Looks like Nun has a marker. Someone knew there was a burial here, but they didn't know who! This cross was not there 30+ years ago, when I was there last.

(And his sister, Janie has a "new stone," as well.)

Today I called the phone number listed for the Postville Cemetery, and talked to a family member associated with it. I told her I wanted to identify that "unknown" person. I gave my name, email address and phone, and told her why I think Nun H. Davis is "unknown." She was enthusiastic, and said she'd pass the info on to the now-caretaker of the information and we could go from there.

I'm excited! Yeah, such a nerd!
