Introduction

The cemeteries of Sumner County hadn't been copied since two ladies copied them in 1977. So I decided I would recopy those close to where I live and also where I have kinfolk buried. So last year I took pencil and paper in hand and set out to the upper Bethpage Cemetery.

I know it will not be without mistakes, because I'm not perfect. Some times you get tired, the writing isn't clear, many of the tombstones are old, the weather has taken its toll. Some of the writing is dim and it's real hard to tell if the number is 3 or 8.

After I got the tombstones copied I went to the Sumner County Archives in Gallatin and searched the funeral home records and some of the old newspapers for obituaries. I found funeral home records listing Bethpage as the burial place of people without listing the cemetery, the row, or the lot. These I could not find in either Bethpage Cemetery. Also some records had dates that didn't match what was on the tombstone. I have included these names in the back of the book.

Some women were married more than once. The funeral home record and obituary were in the name of who they were when they died. The first husband was never named, but they were buried beside him under his name. That also made it difficult to find some people.

Some dates you will find in parenthesis that I have added to the book. They are not on the tombstone. There are some that I haven't found yet and may never find. Some funeral homes didn't keep any records until after 1900.

The obituaries were not in the newspaper if a friend or some one in the family didn't send it in to the paper. At that time the funeral homes did not notify the paper of a death. But if you are lucky enough to find one a friend sent in they told their life history.

Sad as it is, some newspapers were not kept. You will find a very few in the late 1800 and 1900. Where my luck the year I was looking for was the year that was missing.

I hope this will be of some help to you in looking up your family tree

I will apologize now for any errors you find and hope there are not too many.

I'm still looking.
