Index to "Cemeteries of Valley City, Barnes County, ND" 2003,--G. L. Barron

This index contains all of the names that appear in the 244 page 8.5 x 11 inch volume.  This new volume contains all of the
marker inscriptions, and burials without markers taken from cemetery records for around 8,000 burials.  When searching, be
aware that a few of the names are followed by an asterisk, such as Johnson*.  This indicates that the marker did not
contain the surname that was assumed from a nearby family stone.  The name could not be confirmed by cemetery records or by
other means.   A few are followed by a question mark, ?, to indicate that we were dobutful of the surname chosen.  Remember
THIS IS AN INDEX TO A BOOK.  The numbers following the names are PAGE NUMBERS IN THE BOOK.
