Hint - Searching for Records
Many of our cemetery records are in the order that they are found in the cemetery. They were copied down as some one went up and down the rows. We keep them in this order because many times families are buried together even though they had different last names. Examples: Mother-in-laws, married children, married sisters, etc.
Of course this makes your names hard to find. So, let your browser do the searching for you. After the file has loaded. Under "EDIT" use "FIND" (or "FIND in page..") and type in your surname. After you find the 1st reference to your name use "FIND AGAIN" to find the next reference. Happy Hunting!!
