This is just in case and a FYI.....years ago when I was doing my Indiana genealogy research out here in NM...I found some little booklets [in the Albuquerque Genealogy Library Reference Section] printed by the Sullivan HS Senior Class that listed all the little country and larger cemeteries in the county ...it was everything they could find...it was their Sr. Class Project...It was a wonderful find because I could locate where all my family were buried....my g'parents used to take me to these places when I was younger, but only my g'father knew exactly where they were and he was gone. So I am writing this e-mail because of the one which talked about doing the GPS Mapping around Carlisle because of new mines...I am sure these booklets are also in the Sullivan County Library...if this is info everyone already knows...my apologies...just delete. Thanks~~ Marilynn in NM
These booklets may still be found at the SCHS and the Sullivan Library in the geneolgy department. There is also a book at the SCHS and the library Sullivan County Cemetery Records where you can find all the cemeteries (even the ones out in the woods and fields) with those who are buried in each one listed. There is also a map that I have acquired that shows them all but don't know if it is still available. I would be happy to share it with anyone interested. The geneology library department may be reached by e-mail for requests of information and page copies from books; SCHS as well.

Thanks~~ Marilynn in NM ==== INPCRP Mailing List ==== 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." --Author unknown -- Seen at a monument dealer in West Union, IA
