Where the Ancestors are Buried

The following table lists the cemeteries in which the immigrant ancestors who I have discussed on this website are buried. Generally, cemeteries are listed from south to north in the county, which is also generally older to newer cemeteries and earlier to later immigrants/settlers.

If you’d like to visit any of these cemeteries and find the graves of your ancestors, you might use my handy interactive map, which has all of the cemeteries marked (with cross icons) and lists the ancestors buried in each. You can even use that map on your smart phone to get directions from where you are to the cemetery in question: after clicking on a cemetery icon, click on the arrow icon next to the cemetery name in the description pane.
