  Our sincere thanks to Rachelle Curtis and her family for reading and recording the tombstone inscriptions in the Indian Creek Cemetery. The burials recorded here were occasionally checked against the 1990 Cemetery Book published by the Louisa County Historical Society which  has many errors.  If an outstanding discrepancy exists (i. e. impossible birth, death dates), an effort is being made to identify the correct one.  Undoubtedly, there will still be errors as there is in any work of this kind.  These records should be used as a clue to locating family members, but should not be considered as the last word on it. The burden of verification lies on the shoulders of those using these records. You are encouraged to always verify the data with other sources such as obituaries, birth and death certificates.  If you have differing documented information that will help other researchers,  please contact me at: Norma Jennings.

or blue highlighted text Data added from Cemetery Book, two in the same cell indicates belated additions as each table only holds 100 names. It is important to note that some of the data from the Cemetery book includes unmarked graves that was obtained from the ICC plot books
* with omitted data  highlighted in red  =   known Cemetery Book omission or discrepancy (also some known dates entered after 1990 when book was published).  Stones are sometimes difficult to read so it is still up to the individual researcher to thoroughly check all sources of information.  Only the surnames are alphabetized in an attempt to leave family groups together as they were buried.
