Juli,
There is a FHL Film that has it indexed. I ordered it once.
If you have never been there, it is a really sad sight. It is in the corner of a field and a dead end road. Cherry Creek floods it often so the graves on the edge over looking the river are in sorry shape. My great grandma is buried there Mary Manar. Her daughter and son in law were also there, but they were moved over to McKee. The grass hasn't been mowed in a while. I do know there are some Spicklemier's buried there.
If you get Gordon's death certificate, it will tell you where he
was
buried.
