Cemetery records are one of the most valuable tools one can use. In some cases a headstone is the only record that a person ever existed. Obituaries were not published for many who died and in the earlier years formal death certificates were not issued.
Often a headstone inscription was the only record of their dates. Over time many headstones become worn, damaged or missing. Many of the stones were already worn or damaged when this record was started; transcription was sometimes difficult. Individual cemetery records are listed in alphabetical order. Volume X includes the following cemeteries:
