Transcribed by our local cemetery research team
and subsequently updated by Mike Dempsey and Bob Sweeney.

Beginning in October 2005, Michael Dempsey offered to contribute pictures of selected tombstones and markers from this cemetery. We will link these pictures as they become available and are appreciative of Mike's efforts in this regard. He is a descendant of the multifaceted Dempsey families of Sullivan County.

Beginning in December 2009, the Sullivan County Historical Society and Museum (SCHS&M) provided an update that includes previously unlisted interments, as well as addtional information on several of the interments that we did have. This information was extracted from current and old records in the possesssion of that organization. We have color coded those entries in crimson, and express our sincere appreciaton for this information to our colleagues at SCHS&M.
