Cornelius and I visited the Mehala cemetery.  Turns out in Mehala, when the communists were in power, if no one came to visit the grave in 7 years, the body would be dug up and the bones placed in a sack and were put in a new coffin with a newly deceased body and the headstone was changed.  So needless to say, I didn't find any of my family names there.
