The following pages are a list of local people whose burial sites are unknown. These folks died between 1839 and 1939, and are not found in our county's cemeteries. Our longtime Correspondence Secretary Verda Baird realized over her years of research that there were many names in our various county sources that didn't appear in our cemeteries and compiled a listing numbering nearly 1700 souls. These people may have moved away, died and were buried there; they may have died in this county but were buried outside it; or possibly they were cremated and the ashes never interred.
