Data Limitaions
- Expect cemeteries of the same name, even within a given township.
- Because of the "same name" problem, there may be a few instances where it was difficult to match a transcription to the correct cemetery; read the notes fields.
- Many cemeteries have been moved; we did our best to identify these, and to give the background information in the notes field.
- Blank fields do exist; we did our best!
- If you are having trouble, browse the cemetery list for your county and for bordering counties.
- Longitude/latitude have been estimated.
- Many cemeteries will not have an exact postal address.
- Indian mounds are not included in this database; public cemeteries where Native Americans are buried are included.
- Omissions are inevitable-it was impossible to recapture information on many early burial sites that are no longer visible as cemeteries. If you know a correction or addition, please send this information to MGS!
- Errors are also impossible to prevent; use this inventory as a finding aid, and confirm the information for your family! Always check original records!
