Contact the office of the church, or town officials, depending on the type of cemetery!.

Is this a large, well kept cemetery or is in some small forgotten site in the country!?

Many cemeteries are listed in the phone book!. Have you tried calling for directions!?

I take photos of headstones for RAOGK and I have walked several cemeteries in the Twin Cities, usually with a map in hand!.

Good luck on your search!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most current cemeteries have indexes indicating where the bodies are buried (so to speak) and will give you a map indicating the general area of the burial you seek!.

Old cemeteries - you are pretty much on the hunt and peck system!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

They all have offices with maps!. Tell them the name you are looking for and it should take them a minute to find where it is for you!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
