Vigo County Cemetery Books

There are one hundred twenty-seven (plus) cemeteries in this county.  There are a few that have their own records, so, we have not copied them.  We are concentrating on the older and smaller family sites.  We have found several cemeteries gone, being removed to other places due to coal mines, area growth, and larger farm lands.

The reader will notice the township maps have the cemeteries marked whether they are listed in this publication or not.  There will be three volumes to follow this, but it takes a lot of fence climbing, chigger fighting, and briar dodging to come up with some of these old forgotten, destroyed, and neglected burial grounds.

Thanks to those who have assisted in this project that we started as a hobby.
