As a new listmember I commend all the preservation efforts being made
on
older cemeteries. I live in Spokane, WA and hope to travel to Wayne Co,
IN in early Oct to search for my ELLIOTT ancestors, hopefully buried in
that county. I only have record of their marriage in 1816 so little else
is known.
My two questions are; 1. Does anyone know of a list/locations/
internments of cemeteries in Wayne Co? 2. I did find a listing for
Wayne Co. cemeteries. available through the local genealogical society
there (for$20) but can't afford to pay that much if it's only a list of
cemeteries and not people buried within. Anyone out there who can help
me? I suspect my ancestors died sometime in the mid 19th century but
only have their names (Nathan Elliott & Rachel Bunch). They are thought
to be originally from NC and I've heard they were probably not Quakers,
but certainly early pioneers.
Thanks for any help anyone may be willing to give. Perry Krumbach

THIS IS A CEMETERY -----
"Lives are commemorated - deaths are recorded - families
are reunited - memories are made tangible - and love is
undisguised. This is a cemetery.
"Communities accord respect, families bestow reverence,
historians seek information and our heritage is thereby enriched.
"Testimonies of devotion, pride and remembrance are carved
in stone to pay warm tribute to accomplishments and to the life -
not the death - of a loved one. The cemetery is homeland for family
memorials that are a sustaining source of comfort to the living.
"A cemetery is a history of people - a perpetual record of
yesterday and sanctuary of peace and quiet today. A cemetery
exists because every life is worth loving and remembering - always."
