Welcome
The following is a listing of the Cemeteries that I have compiled
for Jackson County, Kansas. Some of these cemeteries may have had
different names in the course of history, so this list may contain
duplicates or the cemetery may be listed here under a different name
than you know. It is also not all inclusive.
If transcriptions are available, they will be found by pushing on the
underlined names. I have listed the Townships, if they are known.
If you would like to volunteer and submit a transcript of a Cemetery in
Jackson County and/or have any additions or corrections, please
email me.
I do not have any further information on these cemeteries other than
what is available on this page.
