Warren County Kentucky Cemeteries Revisited

There are several cemetery books available for Warren County but many do not have more current burials and many have errors. This book is not a duplicate of O. L. Thomas's book Ancestral Graves, does not include Fairview, St. Joseph's, the Smiths Grove or soldier burial cemeteries. In the 1960's Rabold & Price published a book on other cemeteries in the county. Later, Eva Coe Peden had started making corrections on their records and had a long list of errors and further information. I took both sources and added in FindAGrave and compared all. Where photos existed of the actual stone I checked those and found that FindAGrave also had errors. I also found that in the Rabold-Price book many of the cemeteries were not complete though they did not indicate this. This book contains transcriptions of 86 cemeteries with as accurate information that I could find. It includes some photos of the cemeteries cited (not individual stones). I indicated the burials that were not shown in Rabold-Price and those not catalogued by FindAGrave. Some cemeteries are updated to 2016. 164 pages including a surname index. $30.00 or $20.00 for the e-book edition
