Crane Valley Baptist Cemetery

This page is a "re-transcription" of data from four sources: a complete photo survey taken in August 2019, a posted sign at the cemetery transcribed in 2019, the WPA survey of graves in the 1930s, and Find-a-Grave. There are now gravestone photos of all existing gravestones on the Iowa Gravestone Photo Project (IGPP).
We are extremely grateful to Warren County Coordinator Karon Velau and Hancock County Coordinator LaVerne Velau for traveling to Chickasaw County to conduct this complete photo survey. This is now a complete listing of all known burials in this cemetery. Note: The column notations for the IGPP and the WPA below are links which will take you to the corresponding entry for the person listed. "Yes" in the Find-a-Grave column indicates that a record exists at that site.
