I have a death record for a family member who died in Illinois in 1941. Death record lists burial site as:

Hillside Cemetery, Dubuque, Grant, Iowa

I checked the cemetery list, but I cannot find a Hillside Cemetery in Dubuque. Does anyone know if there might have been a Hillside Cemetery in Dubuque in the 1940s that is now known by another name?

Would appreciate any information or advice...thanks!

Dubuque is in Dubuque County....

Since you didn't provide a name....

Do you think they got mixed up when filling out the form? There is a Hillside Cemetery in nearby Platteville, Wisconsin. Platteville is in Grant County. There is no Grant County in Iowa that I'm aware of.

I would check out Platteville, it's just acrossw the bridge!

Thanks ScottD and LindyB for your replies and advice, I really appreciate it!

It turns out that he is buried in Hillside Cemetery in Platteville Wisconsin, just as you suspected LindyB, so the Gold Star goes to you. The record I have is not the original death certificate issued in Illinois, but an abridged transcription of that record. I know that he was married in Dubuque so perhaps the place of marriage and place of burial were conflated somehow...

Thanks to both of you--you put the "find" in Find a Grave. Thanks.
