Cemetery Books

These cemetery books are readings taken from thousands of tombstones which took many years to complete. There are 270 cemeteries, plus a special index to the burial records from Woodland Cemetery, in additional to the tombstone readings.

When these books first was printed, they sold for over $65.00. I am now selling them (cd's) for only $25.00, with the proceeds going to the upkeep of this website. Due to price of publishing, these readings are only available on cd's. 

They are in Word and Excel format. Only persons born before 1900 is listed on these records.

Kelly Cemetery

On last Monday afternoon we took a walk to Kelly’s cemetery, starting from the upper corner of Rodgers Block, walking with a moderately brisk step, up Second street by the best buggy route; we could have cut off some corners, climbing fences, and made the distance a little less.
