Thinker sometime ago posted a thread on the secret corporations of the Watch Tower. He mentions two dummy corporations used as fronts for the Watch Tower Society: the United States Investment Co., Ltd and United Cemeteries Corporation. The one that really interests me is the latter. Since Russell is buried in the Bethel plot in Rosemount United Cemetery, I wonder if the cemetery has a connection to the corporation.

Correction to the second link:
Farkel, thanks.
I continue with the deconstruction of my life-long religion, and posts like this one remind me of issues that I must someday revisit, and resolve.

Thanks Farkel
I fell into that category of those who thought Russell was a nut but that most of the shady business and marriage allegations were simply that.....allegations. Who better to put a patent on a magic cure all potion that 6 million use than a snake oil saleman.
G'day Farks my freind,
You have excelled yourself this time - this is the Farks par excellence.
It may encourage you to know that I've copied your post and am sending it (by snail mail!!!) to those who've contacted me from one of our southern states here downunder where the natives, including many of the elders, are getting restless!! Good, eh?
Thanks, mate.
Cheers, Ozzie (of the truthseekers class)

Farkel,
Good work thanks for the post. A minor gramatical point I found.

Many ex-dubs still operate under the misconception that Russell was a kind and honest man. At times, he was. At other times he was cruel, petty, vindictive, arrogant, manipulative and a brazen liar. In that respect, he was much like his [b]predecessor[/b] in Watchtower Crime, Fred Franz.

Might I suggest the word you were wanting to use is successor.

goshawk,
Yeah, I caught that error too. Unfortunately, I caught it after the time allowed for me to edit had expired.

I have never read this before.
It is so sickening to find out the real truth of a matter.
We were all conned by a lying snake oil salesman.
