Could you do lookup on cemetery listing for Patrick Nolan died 1873 or 1875 in Vincennes.Thank you

Wanda....there is no Patrick listed. Could he have gone by another name? The cemetery listing is taken from the actual stones. If he did not have a stone or it wasn't legible, it would not be listed.

Not sure about another name. Could have been spelled differently----Noland maybe.I appreciate your help.Wanda

Wanda.....I checked under Nolan, Noland, Nolon, Nolen, and Nolting. Sorry, I just couldn't find him.Good luck!Donna

Thanks for your help.Wanda
