BETHEL OR WAUGHS CEMETERY

Transcribed by: Michael J. Von Gebel fall 2006

 

Note from Michael: Very well kept cemetery.  Almost all of this transcription is written, I photographed a few stones.  Close to 50-60 stones were so bad nothing was left to transcribe, however, the cemetery is very well kept.


Additional Information:
I have added the newspaper and dates a person’s obituary was published if known. I collect obituaries and they are important to me. If you are looking for an obituary of a relative the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library offers a newspaper lookup service that will send you copies of the original obituaries listed below for a small fee ( 2 obits for a $1.00 for Illinois residents $10.00 for out of state) check out their information at the following link http://www.state.il.us/hpa/lib/ishlgen.htm

  

Blue indicates a War Veteran,  

 

Although we have tried to be as accurate as possible in our research, mistakes happen, if you know of any corrections or additions to this family please contact me, thanks Laurie lselpien@msn.com
