Another Sears Headstone
It's highly likely this was purchased from Sears. This is a photo from the 1908 catalog. . Maudie Jackson was born in 1907 and died in 1909. She is buried at Geneseo Cemetery.
It's amazing what we could buy in the days before everything came from somewhere else and you took care of your own needs.It's seems we must have a "professional" for every little thing we need in life-and death these days!I was not aware of these, thank you for the education today!
I have seen monument pages from a Sears & Roebuck Catalogue. Is there such a thing for Montgomery Ward as well?
