DEAR ANCESTOR,
Your Tombstone Stands Among the Rest
Neglected and Alone.
The Name and Date are Chiseled Out
On Polished Marble Stone.
It Reaches Out To All Who Care ...
Is It Too Late To Mourn?
You Did Not Know That I Would Exist;
You Died, and I Was Born.
Yet Each of Us Is Cells Of You,
In Flesh, In Blood, And Bone -
Our Blood Contracts and Beats A Pulse
Entirely Not Our Own.
Dear Ancester, The Place You Filled
One Hundred Years Ago
Spreads Out Among The Ones You Left
Who Would Have Love You So.
So Many Years Have Passed You By -
I Wonder If You Knew
That Someday I Would Find This Spot
And Come And Visit You.

The following cemetery listings are those that have been personally inventoried by the webmasters of this site, have been gleaned from notes found in ancestors' belongings, or found in research. In some cases the information is quite complete . . . in other cases very sparse.
In an effort to share any and all information of which we are guardians, information that could enable another to find their relatives, we are putting up all cemetery listings, no matter how abreviated those listings might be.
