Carol is currently walking the Cotopaxi cemetery transcribing 
the headstones to update this listing.

========================

Cemetery at Cotopaxi, CO

A listing of the burials according to the records kept by 
Thomas A. Young.  Thomas Young was the grandson of "Little Ma" 
McCrory who started this hand written list in a spiral 
notebook, and who was the "rememberer" for this list back to 
1885.  The Young family have belonged to the cemetery 
committee for a lot of years, and volunteered to be the 
caretakers of the list, and responsible for directing 
mortuary folks where to bury residents of the community.

The list contains everybody in the cemetery, and except for 
the unknowns (i.e. Railroad Man) represents all the marked 
graves.
