PLATTE VALLEY CEMETERY

by Janet Hawley: djhawley@grm.net

This is a working copy of an unfinished book. The goal is to record many more burials, those in unmarked graves or where the stone has been lost. Please send me an e-mail with notes, corrections or any burials that are not listed here. Give me as much information as to names and dates as you can so that I can check for further data. I would ultimately like to find obits or other information for all the burials. If you know of a specific date of a death that is listed as just a year on the stone, please give me the date, so I can find it in the newspaper.

 

Go east of Barnard on State Road M. approximately 3 miles, then turn south on Liberty Rd. The cemetery is between 400th St. & 402nd St.

It is on the east side of the road, and is being mowed and cared for.

Row 1 is closest to the road, and reads from left to right.
