Notes:
One additional stone found on the LDS microfilm, but not located in the cemetery in 1999:

  1. Ann Hill, d. February 28, 1871, aged 83y

Record of cemetery transcription found at the Vedder Library. It is undated and the transcriptionist is unknown. There are a significant number of stones found on this transcription that are not in the Gayhead cemetery. In addition, there is additional information provided that is not on the stones that still exist. Additional information for stones that still exist will be linked to the above transcription. New information will follow. It is my belief that this was a DAR transcription, and likely the combined knowledge of the DAR Chapter membership was used to create it.
