Information to assemble first
For a search at Stuttgart Forest Cemetery, write down the person’s full name, possible spelling variants, birth and death year, and an approximate burial period. Add the section, row and grave number if any of them is already known. Keep the cemetery name and Waldfriedhof 3, 70597 Stuttgart with the request so it cannot be confused with another burial ground.
