Listed below is the transcription of the tombstones in the Barnett Chapel Cemetery, Milan, Allen County, Indiana. This cemetery is located on the northwest corner of State Road 37 and Barnett Road. The cemetery is next to a farm house. It has been mowed but the many of the tombstones have fallen over. This cemetery is no longer in use. The cemetery was photographed and transcribed in November of 2008. All stones in place at that time were included. If there is a photo of the tombstone, there will be a link after the name.

The listings are in alphabetical order. One surname is listed per stone. If a stone contained multiple people, the names on the stone are listed in order, from left to right. Information that pertains to a single individual is listed after their name. If the information pertains to multiple names, such as a marriage date, it is listed after all the names.

In some instances the stones were very worn and hard to read. The DAR did a reading in 1932 and the Allen County Genealogical Society did a reading in the 1980�s. The information from these readings was used if the stones were unreadable or if the stones were not found.

There is no other information on any person other than what is listed.
