Becky Roberts is doing a very good job of looking up burials for anyone who ask... and, some of the request she has not been able to find in the cemetery books published by Walker County Historical Society. Please remember a couple of things... there are many unmarked graves in Walker County as well as in other counties with no records ever kept of those burials. Now, no one knows who is buried in these unmarked graves. The other thing to remember is graves (and entire cemeteries, alothough not many) were missed when the cemeteries were surveyed several years ago. My husband's gr-grandparents were missed when the Chattanooga Valley Baptist Cemetery (aka Cenchat Baptist Cemetery) was surveyed and their graves do have tombstones. Not included in the Walker County cemetery books is the very large Tennessee-Georgia Memorial Cemetery located in Rossville. I think their first burials were in the early 1930's... just don't remember exact date. Don't forget that Walker County is on the south side of Hamilton County Tennessee (Chattanooga). A number of people who lived in the northern section of Walker County were buried in Forest Hills Cemetery in the St. Elmo area of Chattanooga. The National Cemetery (Chattanooga) is the final resting place of a number of veterans who lived in Walker County as well as some of the other neighboring Georgia counties. So if you think your ancestors were buried in Walker County and can't find them in the cemetery books... see if a death notice or an obituary was published in the newspapers. The Walker Messenger goes back to 1880 although many issues were missing when the paper was microfilmed. Many of the deaths that occured in north Walker County may not have been in the Messenger but in the Chattanooga newspapers. Their obit index can be checked online by going to www.lib.chattanooga.gov Just follow the links to the obit index. June Griffith did a good job of abstracting deaths, births and marriages from the Walker County Messenger which she has in book form. June lives locally but I don't know if she would be willing to do lookups for anyone as she stays pretty busy. Sue Sue
