Welcome to another edition of Tombstone Tuesday!
Continuing our journey in Mount Washington Cemetery, today’s tombstone belongs to Russell Lee Conwell, infant son of Edward Conwell and Edith (Brown) Conwell (my grandparents). Russell was the third child of Edward and Edith. He has two sisters (still living) and one brother (still living).
Russell was born 8 August 1948 in Kansas City, Jackson, Missouri and died 10 August 1948 in Kansas City, Jackson, Missouri. He is buried next to his parents (my grandparents) in Mount Washington Cemetery in Independence, Jackson, Missouri.
Thanks for stopping by Tombstone Tuesday!
This is so cool! It's amazing that you can visit the graves of your relatives and know their stories. You're making me want to get into genealogy!
I heard Russell Lee's story right from my grandmother. I'm very glad she passed it on, it must have been so hard for her to talk about. Genealogy can be addicting but oh so much fun too!
