DAY CEMETERY
The information found in these cemeteries are not based on the headstone inscriptions, headstones can only give so much information. Many do not give full dates, marriage dates links to other family members and over time headstones become hard to read. The following cemetery information is based on many sources; personal obituaries saved by my grandmother Hazel SMITH Lane, obituaries exchanged with other researchers, the Illinois State Historic Library, Legacy of Kin 1&2, as well as Betty Beeson and Doris Bland books. It is not a complete cemetery listing!
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
