Caleb (1800-1876) & Catherine Heindselman (1797-1877) – Cemetery Photos
I found these wonderful pictures that were sent to me by Rita Stoess, who visited Olney, Illinois and was shown these grave sites by Virgil Heindselman. Caleb and Catherine were my 4th Great-Grandparents through their son Jacob Heindselman (1829-1879) who married Frances Clem (1837/38-1922).
