These records were started by Mrs. Clarence (Helen) Bowers for the John Houlton Chapter, DAR. They have been edited, additions made (including sexton records) and indexed by Mrs. Richard (Arlene) Goodwin of Waterloo, and Mrs. Sue Carper of Waterloo, Indiana. Typed by Mrs. Lynn, Indiana.
Included in this book is a list of names which could not be found in the cemetery, along with another list of information found in the sexton’s books. All names in this book will appear in the index. Women will appear twice, under their maiden name and married name. At the beginning of this book is a map showing sections to help locate tombstones, along with some history of the cemetery.
