Here's a listing of
the KNOWN burial places in Menominee County. If we
missed any -- please email me with the name & location.
Each cemetery will have
a page link you can click to go the actual cemetery
page. On the cemetery pages, we'll have listings
of burials & headstones. This is where I need your
help! If you live close to one of the cemeteries
and can spend a couple hours a week to walk it & copy
down the names & info from the headstones, I can add the
data online. If you know who has the sexton
records and can get copies, that WOULD BE TOTALLY
AWESOME! Or, if you have a digital camera and can
walk the cemetery & snap pictures of the headstones,
just send the pictures via email and we'll transcribe
the data. The pictures are a real asset online as
the headstones will deterorate eventually but the
photographs of these headstones will last indefinitely.
I get photos of headstones from time to time that had
the picture been taken 20 years ago, the dates would
have been legible. Let's not be able to say this
about some of the Menominee headstones in 20 years.
We have plenty of space
online so let's make good use of it!
