Algerita Cemetery

Inscriptions

  • The graves are listed by row – starting in the southeast corner and listing from left to right along the east fence line for Row # 1, then moving west for row 2.
  •  Each Tombstone has been given a two-part number.  First is the row and the second is the position in the row. (1.06 would be the sixth stone in row 1.) If the stone has two or more names, the number will be followed by a, b, or c.
  • Rows # 3,4,5,6, and 7 continue through curbed and fenced family grave plots that over-lap rows.
  • Gravesites are not evenly aligned in the rows and there are some wide gaps between tombstones. 
  • There are many markers with only initials or no name at all.  In the following alphabetical list, these will be listed together.

Abbreviations

}     after a name means that there is more than one name on the stone.
      The other names will usually be found in the comment column.

**    indicates that the headstone is a military stone

+**  indicates that there is a military footstone in addition to the headstone

Dbl w/  Double with

 Note:  Under column “Comment” tombstone inscriptions are in “quotation marks.”  Submitter’s comments are surrounded by [brackets.]

                                                                                                Rechecked:   January 2012  a few new graves have been added since the last reading which will throw off the numbering system, but the cemetery is small.
