    1. Re: Alton Cemetery Listings
    2. I had the same question about books on Madison County cemeteries and emailed Debbi Greer at the USGENWEB Tombstone Project site. Her response was as follows: Barbara Votaw A REFERENCE TO THE INVENTORIED CEMETERIES OF MADISON COUNTY, ILLINOIS BY DEBBI GEER, CHAIRPERSON, CEMETERY COMMITTEE LAST UPDATED AUGUST 1997 INVENTORIED CEMETERIES The following is a list of all the cemeteries which have been published by the Madison County Genealogical Society in nine (9) volumes. In addition to its published inventories, the Society has obtained through special permission the inventories of large active cemeteries. Under the terms of which these inventories have been obtained, only one copy has been made and that copy has been placed in the Society's holdings shelved in the Genealogy/History Room of the Edardsville Public Library. The second volume listed after some cemeteries indicate that corrections and/or additions to a previously printed inventory appear in that volume. Please remember that these are not all the cemeteries. In the very near future an attempt will be made to include those cemeteries which have not been inventoried and/or published. The townships are listed in alphabetical order, followed by the cemeteries, also in alphabetical order. If a cemetery does not appear in this list, it will appear in a future volume when the inventory is available. If you need assistance with any cemetery not in the list below, please feel free to contact the Society, as there are other cemeteries which are in the process of being inventoried or hope to be inventoried in the near future.

Due to its size and the condition of the available records, it is considered a special project by the Society. As a result, there is a strong possibility that only one copy will be made available for research needs (unless enough interest is shown to have it published). The single copy will be placed in the library.
