Churches & Cemeteries

Cemeteries of Jefferson Co, as read by Mary Sinclair (1862-1940)

This list is NOT complete and only includes tombstones that Mrs. Sinclair recorded. Most of the cemeteries, listed below, have many more burials. We thought it was important to include this list since the reading was done in the early 1900's and due to time and destruction, a researcher may locate an ancestors grave that has since been destroyed or the tombstone is gone or illegible.

Wintersville ME Cemetery Records Index	Wintersville ME Cemetery Records Tombstone Inscriptions Taken from the church records
The Wintersville ME Cemetery Records was obtained from the records housed at the Wintersville United Methodist Church, Main St., Wintersville, Ohio. The chapter was given a copy of these records and this list was typed and compiled by Flora L. VerStraten. No attempts were made to made any corrections of spellings to names/surnames or dates. The chapter believes that this list was compiled many years ago from a church member who read the tombstone inscriptions. The chapter notes that just the year of birth and death was recorded on this record, even though more information is available on the tombstones. This does not appear to be a complete listing, however.
Lloyd/Gould/Cool Springs Cemetery Index	Lloyd/Gould/Cool Springs Cemetery Tombstone Inscriptions
The Lloyd/Gould/Cool Springs cemetery was read by Alan Gould. He also typed the spreadsheet and wrote the history and researched the deeds to this cemetery. Everything that is in RED is not actual inscriptions, but additional sources of information that Alan has collected from his research or from other sources, listed in the misc. column.
