COMPILERS: This project could not be completed without the help of many people: In 1985 Eileen Knapp Martin and Nancy Winters Cuddeback. In 2007 Eileen Martin, Lora Eccles, Harlean and Jerry Hamilton, Elsie Lopeman, Lorrell Louchard. Database assistance, Bev Brice.
SOURCE OF INFORMATION: JCGS members compiled an index for the cemetery in 1985. This information came from a combination of walking the cemetery and funeral home records. In 1985 no distinction was made between information found in the records as opposed to what was seen on the walk through.
In 2007 JCGS completed an update to these records:The cemetery was walked, making note of those with markers and any information contained on the markers was entered in the index. The current listing combines all the work done in 1985 and 2007. As is true with all compiled records, errors may have occurred. It is suggested that you verify the information.
