Hello Jim: These listings are taken from the blue-bound book "Frankfort Cemetery . . . in Kentucky" published 1988 by The Kentucky Genealogical Society, "A compilation of names and dates on all gravemarkers in the Frankfort Cemetery" (Frankfort, Franklin County, KY). This book is out of print and difficult to find, except in libraries and historical societies. There is a white-bound book published in the past by the cemetery which contains a listing of all burials, even those without markers. Unfortunately, I do not have a copy of the white bound book. I believe the Kentucky Historical Society in Frankfort has copies of both these books. Frankfort Cemetery was established about 1845 -1846. In the 1870's a fire destroyed records of earlier lot sales and burials; a few lot deeds were recorded in the Franklin County Clerk's office. The introduction to the blue bound book mentions that there are "numerous burials in the Cemetery without markers. In some cases, information about these may be obtained from the Cemetery office." Also in the introduction to the blue-bound book, mention is made of an earlier Frankfort Cemetery, still preserved and now called Bellevue Cemetery located " around the hilltop on Leestown Pike . . . in the Thorn Hill area, between US 421 and Fifth Street." It contains burials before 1845. I do not know of any compilation of these graves. There are no listings for the surname Ware. ---------------------- There are several listings for the surname Parrish (pages 200, 270, 303, 448, and 464).

The blue-bound cemetery book is out of print. I was fortunate that my parents, who live in KY and regularly maintain the family graves in the Old Frankfort Cemetery, purchased a copy when it was initially printed in 1988. They probably bought it directly from the Kentucky Genealogical Society. I have no idea of the cost. If you need a couple of look-ups, let me know (they gave me their book, once I became interested in genealogy). The white-bound book (which I have not yet seen) has been and will be again published by the Old Frankfort Cemetery. Don't know what it will cost, but I am supposed to be on their list when they next publish this book (supposed to be this year sometime). I believe that the Kentucky Historical Society has copies of both in their archives/library in Frankfort. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, April 24, 2006 10:52 AM Subject: Re: [KYFRANKL] Cemetery Book > How and where to you request this book??

Hi, The best places to check are the State Archives. They may be able to tell you if they have the naturalization papers. You may even find them on the LDS films for the county he was living in. I found my gr. grandfather's Intention for Citizenship that he filled out. I found that on the LDS film for the county he was living in upstate NY. He never became a citizen as he died 1 year before becoming eligible. The next 2 places are NARA. You can either try the regional NARA office that handles the papers for several states in a region or you can try the one in Washington, DC. I got my grandfather's Naturalization papers through the regional office of Waltham, MA.

Virginia, I have been to the Frankfort cemetery many times. I was there about a month ago looking at the graves of my Moore ancestors, Jarrot and Susan Jane Logsdon Moore. My mother was from Frankfort and I have dozens of relations buried there. The Sullivan/Callahan duplex was located across the street from the cemetery on Main, with the back yard overlooking the prison. My grandmother, Ellen V. Callahan, was born there in 1869. I checked with the cemetery office and they told me the same thing about the white book. They said that it would be a limited publication, three or four hundred. I guess if a person wants one, now is the time to put in a request. Bill Brinly
Hello Bill: I have recently learned that there are TWO Frankfort Cemetery books! The one I have is a hardbound BLUE covered book "Frankfort Cemetery . . . in Kentucky" copyright 1988 by the KY Genealogical Society. This book contains only TRANSCRIPTIONS OF GRAVE STONES in existence when the book was developed. The other book, which I do not have a copy of, is bound with a WHITE cover. This book, which I believe is published by the cemetery, contains a record of ALL BURIALS in the cemetery, even those without a grave marker. Give the cemetery a call -- when I last spoke with them (fall 2005), they were getting ready to publish an updated version of the WHITE book. The office at this cemetery is small and not always open, but when you can reach somebody in the office, they are very helpful. This is a beautiful old-fashioned cemetery, and the family that maintains the cemetery lives in a large old Victorian style home at the entrance to the cemetery. Although I have some Sullivan's in my line about 3 generations back (Lucy Jane Sullivan who married Lewis Walker Butler Noland, lived and died in Frankfort, KY), I don't think we are related, since I understand my Sullivan lines were Protestant. Good luck!

Bill- Good Shepherd should have a record of the Sullivan family, including baptisms, marriages, and deaths. Although there is a new church, built in the 1990s, the old church is still in use for daily Masses and the church rectory is located next door, I believe. (I live in Chicago, but used to spend a *lot* of time in Frankfort in my youth, and still get back there a couple of times a year.) There is a separate "Catholic" section of the Frankfort Cemetery; perhaps the Church's records also cover who is buried in that section, also. Someone from Frankfort please help: Wasn't there a Sullivan's funeral home in Frankfort? I just spoke with my dad (age 90). He tells me that Mr. Pat Sullivan was the president of the Farmer's Bank, and loaned him some money when he needed to go to graduate school. Good luck.
