The open
space in the middle of the cemetery is where there were stones at one
time.
Joan
Kunkel transcribed the cemetery in 1982 and it was included in Vol. IV
of the Barry County Cemetery Books. Mary and Elizabeth Homesley
transcribed it again in 1999. Soon after the 1999 work was completed, we
listed the transcription of both the north and south sides on the Barry
County web site.
Back in
those days, we didn’t know how to use shaving cream on old stones to
bring out the dates that have weathered and aged, so if you have used
dates from either of these transcriptions then you may be surprised to
find a high percentage of error content in your records.
I want our
cemetery records to be accurate, so an attempt has been made to find all
the names and to correct all the dates with the new photo transcriptions
of 2006. However, I am sure that there will be some that we have missed
or some stones that we simply cannot figure out because they are too weathered
to read.
It would
be a good idea to check your dates against the photos that we have
posted. If you find new facts that you want to add to our files, please
write to
