[b]In the Chicago Daily News Photagraphs site there is a picture of a tomb or burial mound somewhere in a Chicago back yard it looks like. Anyone know anything about it? Where is it or where was it? No address was given.[/b]

Do you mean Andreas von Zirngibl's grave on the SE side? Amid the debris and rusting metal of the Cozzi Iron & Metal scrap yard at 9331 S. Ewing Ave.

[b]I got the information on that one. It is very interesting but that is not the one I was reffering to. Look up " Photographs from the Chicago Daily News". Look under "Old Tomb" when you get there. Thanks again.[/b]

I just went to that site.it states that the pic was created/taken in 1905 with no exact address. It would be very cool to find out where it was or is

[b]I hoped someone would know something about it. You can see the backs of houses in the picture and looks like it's in Chicago somewhere.[/b]
