Holy Cross Cemetery

Explanation of Directory

This cemetery directory and map is provided to aid in locating our deceased family and friends. It has been created by cross referencing church records and index cards, the old cemetery cardboard map, gravestones, deeds and genealogy research. The lot location, names, birth and death years, as well as known spouses and parent’s names are given to help identify a specific individual. The plot map will help guide you to their locations, aided by locating the numbered signs attached to the water faucet posts found along the cemetery lane. The original map numbers remain the same, however plots beginning with a “C” were excluded from cemetery records and map, and are now added.

N.S. = No Stone (unmarked grave-site).

Multiple birth and death date discrepancies exist due to headstone dates not always matching other records. Dates shown on this directory were taken from the gravestones, whether they matched death records or not (in order to keep a consistent recording method). If grave markers do not show a birth and/or death year, those dates shown in parentheses were found in other records such as baptismal records and death certificates. The list of unmarked burials will continue to be added in the future. This information will be updated periodically to also include new burials, revisions and additional information. If you know of any missing or incorrect information on this directory, your help would be greatly appreciated by contacting Mary Beth (Greene) Nelson at mbHCCemetery@gmail.com.
