In the OREGON TRAIL what are the SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES if you DONT BURY THE DEAD?

I don't know about the game, but on the real Oregon Trail if you did not bury your dead the Native Americans would desecrate the bodies. Often the settlers would actually bury their dead on the trail itself and then run over the spot with the wagons, animals and walkers just so that they would remain undesturbed. It probably actually helped both peoples as handling the bodies of the sick would have made the spread of disease even worse to the native population.\n\nI suspect in the game that if you don't bury the dead you can expect and Indian attack very soon....

The Oregon Trail isn't a real "trail" per se. It was more about the movement west of the settlers in search of a better life. There were numerous Oregon Trails.

I have asked myself that question too so I did a little checking and I found out some information, for some cemetaries the use the stocked body solution some the cremation but what I found more interesting is that there taking existing land that belong formally to home owners and turning them in to cemetary land. I know here in California we have had plenty of scandal over the years about that and rest assure that is the question that is constantly being asked is where do the bodies go? In the cemetary my mom is buried at they have redeveloped land that was formally from owners who they have bought the land from and turned it into part of the cemetary  which now the place where my mother is at has lots of land there, we were fortunate that we got a new portion of the land before most of the land was taken because there are people dying every 24 seconds and that is true..But next time check your local cemetaries and see how much land they have left and check if they plan to redevelop land for that purpose I did and I was glad I did!

If lightning strikes and you are dead, she will be dead too, so nothing happens until someone finds your rotting, smelly corpses.

The person under there is dead. The do not see, feel, think or breathe. They do not get offended when the lawnmower runs over their grave.\n\nThe important thing is that you remember those who are dead, not how you visit their grave.

I wouldn't think it's ever legal to bury a living man.

I'm not sure of where Humble is. Our family is from a very small town in the Hill Country. Mom-in-law has shown us lots of different grave sites outside the traditional cemetery. Some are her distant relatives. She says that long ago, before the traditional cemetery's, people would bury their deceased family members on their property. Are the headstones legible? Take a piece of paper, place it flat over the headstone and rub a crayon or pencil over it. If the name is legible, take it to city hall or chamber of commerce, they may be able to trace the property owners. Even if you cannot read the headstones, you should report this to the authorities. Someone out there may be wondering where some family is buried. Also they used to bury people who died while traveling. We have one headstone there and all it says on it is "MEXICAN", no name at all. Do the right thing, and let someone know about your find.

Consider the fact that Indians lived and fought all over the country before Americans landed and many died and were buried or creamated. Also pioneers buried their dead anywhere they died. We cannot be sure that nobody died there.

your right. MORMONS THINK IT! \n The Holy Bible nor God Himself thinks it. Period.\n\nDead people are just that. Dead people. Jesus Himself said: "Let the dead bury the dead".\n YOU can't touch a dead person's soul.  End of Story.\n  \n   I think one would be wise to concentrate on Respecting \nthe Living as opposed to Disrespecting the dead. \n The Holy Bible will show you ways to do this. I have yet to read anything here on Yahoo about it.\n\nTo: destinepyle: Read Romans 10-9-10 Each one of us will give account of ourselves to God.\n How can a Mormon give account for another person? using a Holy Bible?  not they're own Bingham version?

An OLD joke.... You can't bury survivors, or you would be guilty of murder.

There is a great sadness. That is why I speak to those who have ears to hear. Those that don't hear, go on with their life, babbling, and clanging like cymbals and gongs. It is not wise to wake a giant, a pig, or a sleeping dog...\n\nLet the dead bury the dead, and may they rest in peace...\n\nBut still, it's sad, people digging their own graves...

I think it depends where they are being buried and how they died,  Also i think that is what life insurance is for if they are still in the military there life insurance will cover it.

that's pretty simple. Just ask whoever is in charge at the cemetery. They should know the answer. You could also plant a tree of remembrance in your own yard. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your difficult time.

Looks like it should have been a felony.
