The information provided on this page was researched by Orville and Mary Prill and Verda Baird. The primary source of information is transcribed from "Vol. 3, Jefferson Co., IA Records" by Mary Prill. That information was transcribed for this page by Judy Neu. Verda Baird also researched the Jefferson County records from 1880 - 1919 and Jefferson County Obituary Scrapbooks to provide, when possible, maiden names and marriages.

We have tried to keep this information as accurate as possible. However, all information should be checked against the original documents.

An underlined surname indicates there is a gravestone picture on our Jefferson County portion of The Iowa Gravestone Photo Project. Clicking the underlined name will take you to that picture. Use your Back button to return to this site. If you have a photo of a county gravestone, please consider contributing it to the Project.

As of April, 2012, photos of all known and identifiable gravestones have been taken for this cemetery. Several have been weathered away or broken off, and little of anything remains to be able to identify who the gravesite is for.
