Bartholomew GALUS was my first cousin three removed. According to his obituary, Bartholomew was buried in the St. Stanislaus Cemetery in Duncan, Platte County, Nebraska. I was not able to locate Bartholomew's gravestone, so he may have an unmarked grave. There was an open area adjacent to Anna SLAWINSKI GALUS' gravesite. Bartholomew may be buried there. This is a photograph of the area next to Anna's gravesite. More about Bartholomew and Anna SLAWINSKI GALUS |
