Some inscriptions, too worn to read or now missing, were added from the 1930s WPA records. At the time the WPA compiled the census records from Fraternal and Greenwood Cemeteries they treated them as one cemetery. Some of the inscriptions added from these records may have been placed in the incorrect cemetery by your compiler and we apologize for any errors that may have been made.
