NEWTON COUNTY CEMETERY RECORDS as of December 1986 To Kitty Williams, who saw a need for this information to be brought up to date and put into a permanent record for our county but who passed away before it could be accomplished, this book is gratefully dedicated. Also to the ladies, who In 1968 tramped these hills and valleys, waded through streams and over low-water bridge, and suffered through chiggars and ticks to find many of our old deserted cemeteries, this book is also dedicated. The people listed below are a partial list of persons responsible for this 1986 compilation. If your name isn't here be sure that we are truely thankful for your help and support.

We fully realize that this is not a Complete report Of all cemeteries and/or graves by any means, but if you know of a grave with name and dates please feel free to write this on the page at the rear of the book. In this way we will be able to say it is as complete as we can make it. Thank you all and I hope this will halp in some small way. John Levi Kent and Peggy S. Kent prepared the Cemetery Records for the Newton County WebPage in 2000. The copies were not crisp so the scan copies needed to be debugged and some retyped so if you find mistakes give feedback. Peggy was a member of the Extension Club in 2000. THERE ARE 63 CEMETERIES THAT WILL BE POSTED AS THEY ARE FINISHED
