The following list is a sincere attempt to show all known graves using several different sources and periodically updated headstone photographs. There may be other graves which are unknown/unlisted due to missing, unreadable, destroyed, or broken markers.

If you have knowledge of any other graves which may not be shown here, or of any incorrect information whatsoever, I would be grateful for your assistance. Drop me an email and let me know. Please avoid however, notifying me of very recent burials that do not appear here. I will capture and incorporate these on the next scheduled cemetery update.

Sections and Rows.
The cemetery plat is divided into six (6) sections:  I, II, III, IV, V and VI.  (Sections V and VI are currently unused.)  Section I is the northeast quarter, Section II is the northwest quarter, Section III is along the west edge of Section II and Section IV is the southeast quarter.  When needed, Sections V and VI will become the southwest quarter, with Section VI along the west edge of Section V.

For purposes of this listing, "Burial Row" of monuments were numbered beginning on the East side of each section.
