In 2002 a DAR chapter in Indiana located the burial site of my great great great grandfather John Cromer, and placed a permanent memorial in his honor. Of course, Jan & I had located the gravesite years ago, I don't know what took the DAR so long. Lois, Jan and myself attended the dedication of the monument.
