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.
For purposes of this listing, the cemetery was divided into East (E), Northwest (NW) and Southwest (SW) sections.  Rows were numbered beginning on the east side of the East Section and on the west side of both West Sections.  Rows often have "offsets" due to the irregularity of plot sizes in the original part of the cemetery.
 

Section divisions used for this listing. (North is to the left of the image.)
Entrance from Main Street.
