Headstones

Note:
V in the margin before a name designates a veteran.

Note. Blocks 85 to 91, inclusive, are 12-lot blocks. There were only 8 lots to the block when the first addition was laid out, with the exception of Blocks 71 to 77, inclusive. When the second addition was added, four additional lots were added to these blocks before making a roadway, thereby creating the 12-lot block pattern for the second addition. These block listings will, therefore, include one row of lots at the south which are a part of the second addition.
