Page County, Iowa Cemeteries Transcriptions by Pat O'Dell: genpat@netins.net Straw, Charlotte, died Dec 28, 1925;Iowa State Hospital - bur in Clarinda, IA "The Hospital records say she's buried in their cemetery. Sometimes that record is wrong, but not usually. Or sometimes I find them buried in another cemetery also so sort of a grain of salt with that until you find the site. They put little rectangular blocks of cement and "wrote" the name in the cement and it is very hard to read."
