Notes from transcriber Maggie Rail, Jan 08, 2000, last edited Apr 29, 2011:

“Here we have two perpetual care cemeteries which have become one, plus the unmaintained areas adjoining them. All of which is owned by Danekas Funeral Home. No distinction of the sections is reflected in my survey. I was unable to obtain Sexton files for these.”

“The survey of the cemetery was done on Aug 20, 21 & 22, 1999, when I walked this cemetery, with a little assistance from Jason Borgeau, Rose and Raven Pettibone. An asterisk (*) has been placed following records obtained later from other sources, which may or may not have a marker.”

“This cemetery is two distinct sections. I was not sure how far the Calvary section comes in from the east end, so I have only identified those that were in the first two areas.”
