Lost Cemeteries

Compiled by E. M. Whetsel


During our efforts to identify and locate Fayette County Cemeteries, the following cemetery names and possible locations have come together as a list of cemeteries that we cannot locate. The information comes from various sources such as old veteran's records, obituaries, individual research and court house records. Some may be old family burial grounds that are gone forever, while others may just be typographical errors that we don't recognize. Others may be secondary or AKA names for cemeteries that we have already recorded but not crossed referenced with their primary name and some remain a mystery.

In the case of those cemeteries that have approximate acreage listed, they were recorded on an old document with the Fayette County Recorder of Deeds. However, due to various circumstances, they can no longer be located or a record of legal ownership has been lost. Although this may seem unusual, there are a number of well-kept cemeteries that have no legal owner of record.

If you have any information that would help us identify and/or locate these cemeteries, please contact the webmaster for this website.
