Garry P, Find A Grave Volunteer in Evanston WY., kindly and generously gave of his time and energy to research the whereabouts of the graves of Frank Roberts and his wife Barbara. He writes: "Just returned from my visit with the sexton and he has a record of them being buried in the Catholic section of the Evanston City Cemetery but there is no headstone nor was a plot recorded back then. They are in the Catholic section but nobody can tell you where. The Catholic section is the first section on your right when you enter the cemetery." Oct. 15, 2012.
