Indexed By: Misty Flannigan & Cindy Ford

Photos Submitted By: Cindy Ford - Apr 3, 2004

With the use of Dowsing Rods it is known that there are eighty-eight graves most of these are unmarked or marked with only a broken sandstone

Many volunteers have worked very hard to provide the researchers of Jefferson County a listing of Cemeteries and to provide pictures of headstones to help you in your personal research.

PLEASE DO NOT TAKE the cemetery listings and pictures that others have worked so hard to provide and add it to any other website as your own.

Thank You for understanding and respecting the work of others.
