Pro tips
Expert Genealogy Advice for Rough and Ready Cemetery Research
Search the place first, not the person first, when names are common. A confirmed cemetery dramatically improves the quality of a burial search.
Use year ranges from the sample table to separate duplicate names. Even partial death-date context is often enough to narrow a search.
If the page looks too thin, that usually means the cemetery record is real but the person-level layer is incomplete. In that case, the county archive is the best fallback path.
