Thanks for relating your experiences. My 3-great grandfather is in Big Flat Cemetery. I almost wish he wasn't in a cemetery, as I have a cousin related to this same ancestor who has access to the exact equipment you mentioned.

Now my next step is tracking down a funeral director near Big Flat, AR.

Thanksgiving is over, but I must say that I am very thankful for all the assistance I've received from this message board and History-Sites.com.
