CEMETERY LINKS: Colorado Springs, Colorado, Lost Graveyard List

           by Diane L. Mueller  dianelm57@juno.com

Recently the COLORADO SPRINGS GAZETTE ran an article stating 
that Evergreen Cemetery, Colorado Springs, El Paso County, 
Colorado was almost full and due to that they were doing an 
inventory of graves bought but never used. Most of the these 
graves were purchased in the late 1800s. Descendants have until 
9 May 2001 to make claim to the graves or they will lose 
ownership. Many of the graves were purchased as a set when one 
spouse died but later the surviving spouse remarried or moved on
and never used the other grave. Some were purchased as a family 
gravesite but the children later moved on and never used the 
graves. I thought the list of names might be interesting to 
people doing research. Perhaps a relative was in Colorado 
Springs for a time in the late 1800s and purchased a grave but 
later moved on. The names are listed with the purchase date.
