In the late 1930's one of the tasks the WPA was assigned was
recording cemeteries. It is unknown whether the WPA workers
actually viewed the tombstones or collected the info from death
records at the courthouse or from newspaper obituaries. However,
even with the inaccuracies in their recordings due to a variety of
reasons, we are still grateful for the resource. Since some of the
markers are no longer readable, the WPA records may be the only
records we have.
