PRATER
writes: “I am planning a trip down to Casey soon to clean up the
old Lanham homestead cemetery where Ansel
and Susannah are buried along with other family members. There
are supposed to be about 20 graves there.
When I located it when there in early summer 2003 with my sister
(who lives in Richmond) could only find 6 graves, because of the
over growth.”
RHONDA
PATTON WATHEN
and I have nearly finished
posting Cold Springs.
COMING
SOON!
RICHARD HOLLIS has
volunteered to head up our "Giant Family Tree" project. Details
are still being worked out and there will be much more
information in the next newsletter. In the meantime, if you use
a genealogy software program, we would love to include your
Casey County (and surrounding counties) GEDCOM files into the
tree.
Since
the last newsletter, the following cemeteries have been
completed and added to Find a Grave
as well as the Casey Co., KYGenWeb site:
Minor
Conder
Mays-Rogers
Simpson
Elder
Maxey
Valley
Rousey
Gum Lick
Mintonville
Piney
Grove/Mullins
New Willow
Springs
Whitehouse/Maddox/Hafley
Oak Hill
Brown
Clearview
Baptist
Scott’s
Chapel
Calhoun
Creek
Bethelridge
Baldock
Chapel
Corinth
First Church of God
Glover
Labascus
Church of Christ
Mason
Creek
Maxey
Valley
Work will
begin soon on posting Salem Cemetery and
Jone’s Chapel. Also, a great book “The Forgotten Past”-
Cemeteries of Forkland Community,
Little South Fork, North Rolling Fork and Gravel Switch,
Kentucky (1974) is being used to post the cemeteries in these
areas. Hopefully we will get photos to go with the entries.
Editors
are needed!
An editor will be sent a
cemetery list. The editor will look at the Find
a Grave entries for that cemetery and
ascertain women's maiden names, full
names and complete dates from obituary and death certificate
info already posted. The editor will then submit any corrections
or additions that need to be made to me. I have found that the
best way to do this is by making the correction/additions in red
on the original list sent. If you are willing to volunteer to
edit a cemetery please contact me at
RochelleRiordan@hotmail.com
As
promised, here are the GPS coordinates for several Casey County
cemeteries with more to come in future editions:
