CEMETERIES BY TOWNSHIPS

Here's a nice
off-site list of the area cemeteries (scroll down to "Other Cemeteries in Lemont Vicinity" section)

And here's
a site that is selling tombstone pictures. The $$ part doesn't thrill us, but you can view the transcription of the stones by doing a search and clicking the records that appear. The website owner recently transcribed Barbers Corners cemetery in Bolingbrook. Any financial transactions are between you and the owner of the site.
