TURNER/TILTON/SANBORN

I would appreciate information on the Loudon Center Cemetery of Loudon, Merrimack Co., NH. My step grandmother, Maude (Tilton) Turner is buried there and has a upright granite stone with her and her husband's name: Harry A. Turner, on it. But I would like to find the lot number, any burial records, etc. I have a photograph taken before Harry's death date was inscribed, probably 1964, but not afterward. My grandfather, Harry Allen Turner died 15 Jan 1965 and was cremated. Possibly his ashes were deposited there. I'm not sure. I am willing to pay for the burial information and/or a photograph of the stone, if it includes his death date. Separately I would be interested in connecting Maude Estelle Tilton b 11 Oct 1877, Loudon with her ancestors. Her father was James S. Tilton and her mother: Ida Blanche Sanborn. The funeral for Harry was held on 18 Jan 1965 in Reading, MA. The funeral for Maude was held on 14 Jul 1964, also in Reading, MA. Holder of the deed to the burial lot is of interest also.
