Pleasant Hill Cemetery

     From May to December of 1978, I worked on the compilation of individual
cards for Pleasant Hill Cemetery burials.  This included many hours spent at the
cemetery, copying tombstones, cross-checking names from the record book, and
transferring the information onto individual record cards for the cemetery
association.  In addition, much proofreading was involved.

     I also recopied the record book, as the old one was dilapidated.  I secured
a new map of the cemetery from the office of the county surveyor, and numbered
and colored in the filled graves on the map.

     This was my project for Eagle Scout rank.  Four other scouts from my Troop
26, Holy Name Church, Topeka, Kansas, ably assisted me.   I would like to thank
Patrick Kennedy, Alan Singleton, Dan Hrenchir and Bob Hrenchir who helped me.

Altogether, we put in more than 50 hours of work.  We also made a sign for the
cemetery.

     After finishing the project, I thought the information would serve
genealogy enthusiasts if it were recorded in book form.  Thus, my mother, Joan
Hrenchir, volunteered her time to type the alphabetized cards for this book.

     This compilation is to be used only as a reference book.  Any information
contained in it may not be copied for sale by anyone, without the written
permission of the author. 

     Three copies are available for use.  They have been given to the Topeka
Genealogical Society, The Topeka Public Library and the Kansas State Historical
Society, Topeka, Kansas
