The Buiding I need to know.? It is a building in downtown Montgomery, Ala., called The Steiner-lobman ironmongery and Teague. If you look on top in the corner, there is what appears to be a round dome. This exercise of a coffin. I know that it is in the form of a castle and there is a sign that tells about the person buried there beside him. But the problem is that I do not know what the sign says. It is written in Portuguese. If you know who is buried there, or how can I know it would rock. If you need to see a pic, you can google the names of buildings and see the photos.

I moved to Montgomery as a child in 1972 and I remember the realtor showed us the city has stressed that building. The Lore told me more than one "old timer" is that one of the owners (or Lobman Nathan L. Steiner) had wished to be buried there forever watch over the family business.
35 years and I have not seen any definitive proof one way or another. Although it is difficult to prove that someone is buried up there, if it can be verified at the time the owners are buried elsewhere, it should resolve the issue.
I solved a similar problem about a barber in Nebraska, which apparently disappeared in 1938 ... Perhaps this can be solved in the same way. I'll try and then post the results anyway.
