How To Find a Grave


Question Posted Tuesday May 13 2014, 11:47 pm

I was in the same grade in school as these brothers who I'd always thought were twins. In high school or college, I found out that they were actually triplets, but the third baby had died on the day they were born.

Then last night, I was surfing on findagrave.com (I know it's creepy, but I like to leave virtual flowers on people's pages) and I got on a page for a cemetery in my town to look up a family friend who is buried in it. I just searched his last name which is Davis. When the results came up, there was one for Corbin Davis. He was born and died on the same day, he'd be my age if he were still alive, and he has the same last name as the aforementioned two brothers. I know this doesn't mean much, but although I'd rather not give those brother' names on the internet, Corbin does seem that family's style.

The thing is that findagrave has little more information about him than I've given you. I dont have contact with those brothers anymore and even if I did, I'd rather not ask them, "Is your dead brother's name Corbin?." So I have to figure it out myself. I know it's probably weird that I care so much, but the death of a baby is a very sensitive subject for me and I'd like to leave him flowers if it is him. My plan is to find his grave and see if his parents names are on it. If there not, then the kid will get some free flowers anyway, but how do I find his grave? Is there an office or something that I can go to that would pinpoint it's location in the cemetery? Does it sound like it IS the right kid? Davis is a popular last name and I live in a small town. WDYT?

I would try to look up the obituary. If your local newspaper has a website this is where I would start. It sounds like you have close enough dates so with the brother's names as well you should be able to find it. It is very nice of you to want to put flowers on the baby's grave!Good luck with your search!
