Jay,

When the original church burned down many of the oldest cemetery records were destroyed. As I recollect the records that exist go back into the 1800's, but I cannot say how far back. It will cost you a few bucks to have them search the records for you. Since they currently do not have a superintendent and the office remains closed 99% of the time I suggest that you write them. There is a woman who takes care of the records and she is very helpful.

I visit the cemetery on occasion and can look around for you if you are searching for specific individuals I don't mind looking for tombstones. It is a large cemetery though so keep that in mind.

Bob
