October 11, 2002, Newsletter Issue #68: Cemetery Research - Desperate Measures

Tip of the Week

Haven`t been able to find the cemetery of your ancestor yet? Time for the big guns! Narrow down the area where you believe your ancestor may have died or bee buried, then turn to maps! Use land, tax and/or census records to mark the areas around your ancestors home. They will often be buried in either a nearby cemetery or even in a family cemetery on their own property. There are topographic maps available which may show cemeteries, roads, houses and farms and lead you to your ancestor`s burial place.
