Scott County Cemeteries

These cemetery listings are from the old Scott County ILGenWeb page. We do not know if the contributors are available to answer your questions. However, this important work is preserved here for Scott County researchers. The original pages carried the following notation.

Our thanks for these lists go to Florence Hutchison and Shirley Aleguas. Shirley has done many of the transcriptions of the cemetery lists and others lists so they can be made available to family researchers at both the Scott County site and the Morgan County site. She also does look-ups in her Morgan County books which also may contain references to early Scott County families since Scott County was formed from Morgan County in 1839.

Each cemetery will have its own post. Posts will be added as time permits.
