Garrison Cemetery

Compiled and transcribed by Laurie Selpien

A-K   L-Z

This cemetery was completely photographed and transcribed in November 2006

by Michael Von Goebel his information taken from the headstones will be in this color

 

I have added information to this cemetery is not based on just headstone inscriptions but rather the family bible of Lafe Perry, and other records I have found on our family. As well as the Book Legacy of Kin by Harold G. Felty and the Illinois state data base as a cross reference. My additions are in this color.

Blue row indicates known war veteran! 

Information in this color came from the Richardson Funeral Home Records
