These records of burials reflect the status of the Society's knowledge at the present time. They should not be considered complete and definitive. They are, however, the product of diligent research by many volunteers over thirty-five or more years.
We believe that for most small local "family plot" graveyards this data is quite complete. For the larger cemeteries, many of which are still active it is well to consult the association which runs the cemetery for their records should be more complete.
The Society encourages all users to submit new data and
send us corrections. Details

| Lat/Long: | The geographic coordinates of the cemetery if available. The Globe button will open a new window and take you to a view of the cemetery location in Google Earth. (Google Earth, which is a free application, must be installed on your computer for this feature to work.) |

| Comments: | Many subjects may be included here: anecdotal stories of visits, comments about conditions, results of research. |
| Info Sources: | Most of the data shown comes from a cardfile created by the Society volunteers during the 1970s and 1980s. Generally it is not sourced. We are attempting to gather source information from researchers and donors for data gathered since the database was placed on line. Those sources should be shown here. |
| Born & Died: | Dates shown in green are indefinite (circa). |
| Tombstone icon: | If a picture of the gravemarker is available on-line, there will be a map pin in this column; the picture is on the page accessed by clicking on the book icon in the Details column. |
