Henry A. Eberhard date of burial:8-27-1927, Ida's date of burial: 4-22-1929, they are in Cooper cemetery, Kalamazoo, MI.Their stone is very unusual it is a large planter sitting on a stone foundation, on each side is their date of death.My cousin and I had a very difficult time find it.We had to go to the city hall and get actual directions where they were.
I have a picture of Daniel and Christina.my cousin has a leather book full of tin types of the Eberhards, and also there is a picture of two beautiful girls their last name is snider, beautiful pictures.
I have a copy of the family tree given to me about 30 years ago, on the tree, children of Daniel and Cristina are:Bill which would be William
Tom, Tamer, George, and Henry.
