Summary
In February 1996 the Beaver Island Cemetery Committee asked the community to help fill gaps in the Gallagher Road cemetery’s burial and lot records. The appeal sought copies or approximations of lot purchases, sales, burials, and lot numbers.
Evidence limits
The notice documents a records-recovery project. It does not identify the missing graves or establish that the requested records were later found.
