Can you Help?

Older cemeteries & gravestones are disappearing every year!  Whether destroyed by weather or mischief, the stones are fading away and may not be available for future generations to learn from.  Help honor those who passed before us by preserving the record of their presence before it gets to this...

       

We are currently looking for volunteers who can visit and photograph or transcribe the cemeteries of Linn County specifically for this web site. If you have transcriptions or can volunteer your time to help with any of the cemeteries listed here, please let me know.
