Shirley,
I am, as County Coordinator, working up a graves listing for Sheley Cemetery in Union Twp. of Poweshiek county. It isn't posted yet (soon, I hope), but in it I have:
Booze, Mary - d. 05-Aug-1855, aged 70 yrs, 6 mo and 13 days, with an inscription "Wife of J."
Booze, Clarinda - d. 04-Apr-1892, aged 65 yrs, 11 mo and 5 days, with an inscription "Wife of James"
Booze, Paschal - d. 20-Aug-1863 (no age or DoB), with an inscription "Co. K 10 Iowa Vol." and a GAR marker.
There are also two infant burials, inscribed as daughters of "P. and S.":
Booze, Isadora A. - d. 02-Apr-1863, aged 1 yr, 8 days
and an unnamed,
Booze, Infant - only date given is 30-May-1857.
Additionally, on the Pension Roll of 1883 (which is posted on the Military* page), there is a widow, Sarah A. Booze, at the Forest Home Post Office, shown as receiving her initial pension payment in March of 1867.
This isn't a great deal, but you might want to search the web-site and the Message Boards (separate searches, sorry!) from time to time, to catch anything new that gets posted.
