Cemetery Records

Cemetery records linked below were compiled by Suzanne Livingstone from tombstone inscriptions during visits to the cemetery in September 2018 and again in April 2020.

It is possible there may be other stones, some of which are no longer visible, either under grass or very weathered to where they are illegible. There appears to be several stone/cement markers either with no name or very weathered and illegible names. There are several simple cement stones that were simply not legible any longer and some covered by grass and/or dirt.

    What makes us Different?

    Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced

    Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.
