My grandparents used to take me to the Montz tomb in Greenwood when I was a girl. We went fairly often; not just for All Saints Day. Many times, my grandmother would pull out an old shoebox full of obituaries and tell me all about her relatives. Do I ever wish I had that shoebox! I am researching these French/German sides of my family: Barrere, Haslauer, Montz, and Gurtner.
