Family History Library has book 977.835 Marion Co MO Hannibal, Missouri Riverside Cemetery records. I am looking for the INTERMENT records which the book referees to as available from Tri County Research P.O. Box 1151 Hannibal, MO 63401. Is this still available? I have the date of death for William McClormick Loudon, but the book says his birth was Cumberland MD and I think it should have said Cumberland, PA. I want to see those actual records. Thanks for you help.
I am looking for information on Edward Green, perhaps originally James Edward Green, who served in Co D, U.S. Colored Infantry, during the Civil War. His brother Charles Green was wounded and taken prisoner at the Battle of the Crater, and died of infection while a POW. I am trying to confirm that this is the same Edward Green who married Lucie Fuller in 1869, living in South River Township with his wife and children in 1880.

I found a marriage certificate for my GGGrandfather, Absolom M. Babb and Mary Ann Shaw dated 24 March 1857 performed at St. Judes (sp) Parish, Marion County, by a Rev Frederick B. Sheetz. I did find the Reverend in the 1860 & 1870 Census for Marion County. I’m looking for any information on the Parish or maybe a picture of the church.
