I have already contacted the records clerk in Hill County, Texas that handles the birth, death & marriage certificates, but she said she doesn’t know who to contact. Any suggestions?
Update – I don’t need to know where they are buried or dates – I have pictures of their graves. My questions are pertaining to the data on the stones – discrepancies to other records on same people. If there is such a thing as a cemetery office, I can’t find a number or a address

If you’re looking for information related to their burial, doesn’t the cemetery office have the information you’re seeking?

Sorry for the delayed reply .. let me see what I can find out and I’ll write again in a few minutes (it’s Friday, 5:00PM in Chicago)

Okay, here’s a website with a list of the names of those buried there. The website also has a phone number for info on plot availability and an email address of the person who assembled the list of names. Sounds like the email addy may be useful to you.

It’s a small cemetery that may have begun as a family burial place. So you’re right that there’s no office.

I hope there’s something helpful here…

If a devastating cat. 5 (200mph)hurricane hits.. and crosses from the atlantic to pacific….?

February 20th, 2010 2 comments

if a devastating cat 5 (200mph winds) hits the caribean and causes thousands of death and 100s of billions in damage, then moves on to mexico, and crosses to the pacific, they wouldve retired it’s name.

but since it actually crosses to the pacific, it reagains strength, and causes more billions$ and deaths.

will they change the name to a pacific storm, or will they keep the same name as an atlantic and pacific storm. will it have the same record, the same name.

so what im asking is, will they change the name, and willl it have a new record diiferent in the pacific than atlantic.

would they actually do that, or will the world know it by only one name

and if you see this question, go to my questions and asnwers and help answer some others please
remember, im talking about if not what can.

According to the National Hurricane Center, it used to be that a storm crossing into the Pacific basin would get a new name from the Eastern Pacific list of names. However, the rules have changed and as long as the system does not die and become a tropical depression, it will retain the Atlantic basin name. If it becomes only a tropical depression as it crosses into the Pacific or if a Pacific named storm crosses into the Atlantic (yes, it has happened) will it be given a new name.

Here is the web page from the National Hurricane Center that explains the current rules.

Now if you are asking if the name has to be changed since the name is retired after causing the initial damage, that would not happen. The Name of a hurricane is only retired after the end of the "season" when a committee made up of regional member nations of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) meets to consider if any names need to be retired and if so, to nominate a replacement name for the one retired to the WMO.

EDIT: for UALog

I believe I know your answer. I recall a conversation many years ago with someone who knows more on the subject than I, and what they told me is the WMO committe members have an informal agreement that names for the Atlantic basin will not be used for the Eastern Pacific and also the other way around. If that does exist, that would solve any confusion. I may not be correct since my memory is not as good as it once was but that is the way I remember the conversation. I checked and don’t see any names that are the same (several very similar) on the lists at this point.
