Monroe County, Iowa WPA Cemetery Records Submitted to the USGenWeb Project Archives by Stephen Stewart on October 3, 1998. Copyright. All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ________________________________________________________ NOTE: For more information on Monroe County, Iowa Please visit the Monroe County, IAGenWeb page at http://iagenweb.org/monroe/ ________________________________________________________ During 1937/38, Monroe County WPA workers audited all the known cemeteries in the county and took a census of all adults buried in the county at the time. I have not pursued the reason why children were not included. The following page links contain the complete dataset from that audit. The dataset compiled here has been entered in a database by Virginia Stewart from copies of hand typed and alphabetized data procured from Sarah Hindman. Sarah indicated that she received them from one of the original auditors. No attempt has been made to verify all of the data, and we presume that over 50 years of copies, new mistakes will have been introduced and original mistakes propagated.
