Goals of this project are:
  1. to identify and locate every cemetery in Illinois. This includes those that have been abandoned, moved, no longer in use, and presently used. It is hoped that the identity will include county, township name and number, range, and section; may including location and other information.
  2. to indicate whether or not a cemetery has been published and the availability of the cemetery records.
  3. For additional information about finding transcriptions of cemeteries or other information, please read redarrow.gif (128 bytes)

The information is not complete. A number of counties are incomplete and we need you to help us up-date this information.

If you are looking for a cemetery and don't know what county, please drop me a line. Pat Ely

Please note that headstone transcriptions
are not a part of this project.

To add a new cemetery, add driving directions, add other information or to let me know about errors, email me at tmacentee@gmail.com

Please note: IDOT maps include townships and county sections, and county roads.

Here is another way to locate a cemetery!
(But not all of them! USGS maps do not show cemeteries that are smaller then 50'squared - if you know the coordinates from the center  of the cemetery and it is not on a USGS map, please send them to us!)

When using this form, on the first blank fill-in the "name" of the cemetery you are interested in, then fill-in "state".. If you want just all cemeteries in a particular county, then leave "name" blank. In the "features" blank, you fill-in the word "cemetery". Then click "send query". Once you reach the location map, you may "zoom" for a closer look at the vicinity. Click here for form.
