§2 Cemeteries and Burial Grounds Contents: This document presents an inventory of known listings around the internet of cemeteries, monuments and the like that fall within the boundaries of the Little Nine Partners patent. My priority will be to list those pages that include listings of interments. Some other grounds without known listings will be included as deemed appropriate. In some cases, the same ground is listed by more than one site. I will list all of them insofar as they are not straight copies of each other. I have found that this can help spot discrepancies in the transcriptions. If the linked page provides no or incomplete location information, I will provide this if I know it. It is my intent to visit each site with a GPS receiver and record here the exact map coordinates, which will be noted by the presence of this symbol:
