This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.

You did not mention a date range, but if you have not tried the Shasta County Historical Society, I would suggest starting with them. Also try CAGenWeb for Shasta County (they have a "small cemeteries" section, some with only one or two names ) and can follow up with contacts/links on that site, post surname queries, search the old marriage index, etc. For possible obits (depending on date range) and general information about that area, you can also try the Redding public library (main branch for the county library).
