His Resting Place

With heartfelt Thanks to David Dillman 

who  searched on two different days trying to locate the marker so that I could have pictures of Emmanuel's resting place.

I would like to also mention that David had to dig a bit to find the "ROSE" marker.

He placed a flag and flowers as a memorial to Emmanuel.

David also provided me with the information so that I could add the aerial pictures as well.

N 40 2 58.5W 75 34 34.7

There is not a G.A.R marker for Emmanuel. And I'm working on that now.

 

 

  And a BIG Thank you goes out to Elaine, you were the greatest help in all of this
