Easton Obituary Collection (taken from iagenweb.org/plymouth) Sophie is buried in LeMars at the very end of the Popken plot. She wanted to be buried in Akron in the Claesson plot and that is where she originally was. When daughter, Irene moved back to Sioux City she had a fit and wanted to move her to LeMars.
