Jacob Park Cemetery

 
This transcription was found in the Oldham County library in their genealogy section from an old manuscript entitled "Graveyards - Jefferson County".   I believe Jacob Park is the old name for the present-day Iroquois Park.   Someone please correct me if I'm wrong and give me the correct story.   Please email your coordinators if you have any names you would like to add to this listing.
