California Genealogical Society and Library - Fonda, William M. - b. CA 1861 - d. 1903 - IOOF-Cremate - bur. 1903 IOOF-Cemetery - www.californiaancestors.org

Note: By 1923 the IOOF Cemetery in S.F. was all mainly moved to Greenlawn Memorial Park at 1100 El Camino Real, Colma, CA 94014, San Mateo County. www.sanfranciscocemeteries.com

According to his obituary, William Thomas Fonda (1830-1912) was cremated at Cypress Lawn Cemetery in Colma and then interred at the IOOF San Francisco Cemetery. His wife, Eleanor (1837-1916) was probably handled the same. Several of their children were also cremated and some show initial interment at IOOF. In 1933, 26,000 bodies from the Oddfellows Cemetery in San Francisco were moved to Greenlawn Cemetery in Colma. There are no records of any Fonda interments at Cypress Lawn, so until verified, the five Fonda family members previously shown at Cypress Lawn have been moved to Greenlawn.
