Because it is impossible to visit this cemetery today to read the original tombstone inscriptions, it was necessary to consult other records in order to compile a list of known burial information. The “Source” column below indicates the most complete record found for each particular burial. The “Alternate Information” column notes any additional or contradicting information found in other sources.
