Proof can be found on these cemeteries by checking the Deed Books or seeing the cemeteries

These old pioneer cemeteries have been lost or abandoned, their locations lost in time and memory. As new development and construction expands in the county, these old cemeteries are in danger of being destroyed and no longer remembered. There are untold numbers of old family burial plots and tomb stones out there in the woods, in the fields and on the little ridges that are unknown of today that hopefully will eventually be found. Some are known only by the landowner or in family histories.
