Schlatter Family Photos
- page 4 -
These photos are of the Schlatter family plot in the Shaw, MS, city cemetery.
My parents, Joseph A. Schlatter, Sr., and Annie Richardson Schlatter died in
November 2005 and march 2007, respectively. They were cremated; they
wanted to be interred together in Shaw. On 20 October 2007 the Schlatter
and Richardson families gathered in the Shaw, MS, city cemetery for a burial
service. I took these photos then.
First, here is an aerial view of the cemetery showing the location of the
Schlatter plot.


The large marker denotes the SCHLATTER family cemetery plot.
The headstones in the plot at the time this photo was made -- 20 October 2007 --
are, from left to right:
-
Joseph A. Schlatter, Sr., and Annie Richardson
Schlatter (partially obscured by the pile of dirt). This photo was
taken just before their remains were interred in front of the headstone.
-
John A. Schlatter, oldest son of Adolph and Emma.
-
Emma Waldner Schlatter
-
Adolph Schlatter
Here are photos of the individual stones.

At this time, my mother's date of death -- 18 March 2007 -- had
not yet been engraved on the stone. My father, Joseph A. Schlatter, Sr.,
was Adolph and Emma's middle son.
